Hot Sunday on the water

The weather continued to be extremely hot in Iowa, but we were able to get out on the water of Coralville Lake and enjoy a cool breeze.  Tim took us cruising around the lake on their houseboat.

Here's the view as we left the dock:

Lola was nervous on the water and she did not seem to like her lifejacket one bit!

Ranger stayed behind in the air-conditioned RV.

We rode along the shore for quite awhile.  This is a man-made lake, along with its partner Macbride Lake.  The shoreline was full of interesting sandstone formations.

We spent much of the afternoon rafted up in a cove with Pam's daughter and her husband (and friends of theirs) and the kids had a great time swimming and sliding down a mud-covered slide into the water.

When we returned to the marina, Pam made a big dinner of pork chops, potatoes & onions, and corn-on-the-cob.
