Grapevine Lake, Texas ~ last Friday night

One cool way to beat the 100 degree heat!  Get invited for a ride on our best friend's boat.


Houses on the lake aren't allowed to have docks?  Our group headed to the marina from Coppell.  I guess it helps to keep the land surrounding the lake natural looking.  Like the the above picture.


We headed out on a Friday about 7:00 PM, still about 102 degrees outside.


It is a pretty large sized lake, the Gaylord Texan Resort is at one end. 


Yes, I will be glad to live in the guest house at this place.  I promise to be quiet, you won't even know I am there.  


Another huge place on a cliff.


We headed to the "beach".  You just anchor and float.



Our gourmet dinner.  Hey, those are chick-fil-a nuggets! We went all out.


Sunset with friends and finished off with fireworks over the Gaylord Resort.  Great way to start our weekend.  


I love the blue boat! We are keeping our calendar free every Friday night, just in case we get a call to cool off and start another weekend the right way!

  4. That house looks like maybe even the garage would be an OK place to live!
    Sounds like a fun day. :)

  5. How fun! I haven't been to that lake in quite awhile other than going to the Gaylord a couple of times. I used to go that lake all the time when I was younger.
    By the way, Chik-fil-a nuggets are the best!
