I was invited to the annual Girls Day on the Lake on High Rock Lake in NC. Started around noon when my friend picked me up on her golf cart and we went over to her beach (yes, her husband built her a beach) to wait for the boat.
I was picked up along with my four good girl friends. Had enough alcohol on board to supply a small country. And this was the first stop.
Made two more stops, picking up our designated driver on the third and off the 13 of us went on the lake.
We spent the afternoon cruising, talking, swimming, drinking and trying to keep away from the boys boats. At one time we had 4 boats circling us - kind of reminded me of Jaws for some reason. But we managed to keep them off the boat.
At one time after we had visited Goat Island (an island where boats beach and everyone swims, drinks and socializes each weekend) we stopped at our house to use the bathroom. I did not think Steve would be home yet, but he was. Off come 13 girls in bikinis to find the Direct TV guy and Steve's pool table helper in the house. I think that they were a bit shocked.
Around 6 pm after shaky juice (which is basically a lemon shot), Bourbon slush, peach coladas, frozen cold coconut rum along with everything else individuals brought to drink, we were off to dinner that the husbands traditionally cook.
We made a spectacular arrival and the husbands served shrimp, crab legs and sausages. Many of us had sent over salads and desserts. So a feast was had.
What a wonderful day! Weather was great, got to meet new friends and enjoy another tradition on the lake.

When the 13 bikini babes came through the house, I'll bet Steve was smiling from ear to ear and telling his buddies, "Yes, this happens all the time".
