This weekend we had my company summer party at Lake Blackshear Resort in Cordele, GA.
Friday, we had lunch and played kickball out on the beautiful lawn. (shown in the picture) Kick ball was a lot of fun. We laughed and carried on making fun of each other. The red team (which was my team) won.
That evening we ate a wonderful seafood boil with cocktails before and after dinner. Dinner was superb! Max and Mitchell wasn't too fond of it but I thought it was fabulous! Scott and I went for a walk around the lake and sat for a while on the veranda and watched the sun go down on the lake. Afterwards, the boys wanted to swim so we sat at the pool for an hour or so relaxing. When we made it back to our room, it was 85 degrees. The air conditioner had broke. We ended up having to move to a different room. It was 10:30, we were tired but there was no way we were going to try and sleep in that heat!
On Saturday morning, we had a nice buffet breakfast. After breakfast most everyone went home but we decided to stay an extra night. So Scott and I played golf until about 2:00 then the four of us rented a small pontoon boat for the afternoon. We rode around for about three hours looking for alligators. With all the vegetation along the banks, they were too difficult to spot. However, we did see one in the lake while playing golf. Good thing I was able to hit over the water! I would have never recovered my ball.
That evening instead of eating at the restaurant on the resort we decided to try a Mexican place down the street. It was okay until we all thought there was a big dead rat on the floor. I lost my appetite right then and there! After some inspection we discovered that it wasn't a rat afterall, it was a thick chuck of hair. I don't know which is worse.
On Sunday we checked out and headed back to Atlanta. On the way home we stopped by Cracker barrel for brunch and my parent's house for a father's day dinner.
It was a very enjoyable weekend.
