The Pink Flamingo in Arizona

Finally we spent the night on the Pink Flamingo out on the lake.  It’s been a long wait and I forgot how relaxing it is to be away from the dock for an overnight.  Not to mention we missed all of the drama at the dock on Saturday night.

Our friends Charlie & Cindy and Aris & Janet also camped out so we had some safety in numbers with the anchoring.  With 3 anchors out front and 1 out back we didn’t move at all.  It was so many great laughs along with great food and of coarse drinks.  The weather was perfect and we didn’t even have to run the generators at night which really made it great.  Several other friends stopped by during the days and it was just a perfect couple of days.  We even returned with all of our anchors and nobody had problems parking in the slips.

Dixie’s Dinghy turned out to be a bit too heavy on the back swim platform but some friends let us use their paddle boards and I was able to coax Dixie into going to shore twice.  The picture is one of the few times she stood nicely on the front.  Most of the time she was nervous moving around or trying to cuddle up by me which makes it much harder to paddle.

Already dreaming about the next time we can do it.
