This past father's day weekend, Dustin, Bailey, Dallas and myself headed to the Lake of The Ozarks. Dustin's father has a small cabin in the Gravois arm; Dustin wanted to go for father's day and a weekend out of town sounded great to me!
We loaded up and headed down on Friday night. Getting a man, myself and three dogs ready to get out of town is quite the time consuming procedure so we arrived a little later than we had planned. We were greeted with a spectacular lightening display. Very cool.
Saturday morning we woke up early to go check the catfish jugs and take the dogs for a boat ride.
Bailey seemed to be the only dog that really enjoyed the boat ride. Tasha was feeling a little under the weather because normally she likes to go. Bailey attacked the water that was splashing up in the boat. It was entertaining.
We cruised into the main channel to check out things and then headed back to the house for some lunch. Lunch was scrumptious and prepped our bellies for some cocktails.
Dustin and I headed out sans doggies to check out some of the bars on the lake shore. Our first stop was Coconuts. Color us impressed.
It was really shaping up to be a perfect afternoon. We spent a few hours in this pool enjoying the weather and drinks before we decided we wanted to check out another place on the main channel. It was called Lazy Gators.
Lazy Gators was nice, but I am not sure it was worth paying a cover charge. Shaded cabanas with misters...nice touch. Infinity pools are always good too. However, the staff was rude and seemed more interested in their side work than actually serving drinks. The clientele, well it gave Dustin and I lots to laugh about.
After absorbing all the good laugh out loud fun at Lazy Gators we headed home. It had been a fabulous day of lounging and sipping cocktails. Just what the doctor ordered. We topped off the night with a crab leg dinner...yum-o!
Unfortunately, the next time we'll be able to get away to the lake is Dustin's birthday weekend. We're hoping his brother and his fiance can make it down to celebrate with us. I'm already to spend another lazy day at Coconuts or Lazy Gators!
