Take Me to the River

This past weekend I spent some much needed time on the water with my RVA Scavenger hunt team. Paul's family has had property on the Rappahannock River since 1978 in a tucked away community where most people venture out on golf carts and everyone is greeted with a wave and a warm smile. It's the kind of place that reminds me that life is meant to be enjoyed as much as possible with good company, good food, and good ol' mother nature.


Only an hour from Richmond, it's the perfect getaway for those days when I need to feel sandy mud between my toes and the sun on my carefully sunscreened face. We headed out on the boats to a small beach where neighbors were water skiing, sunbathing, jet skiing, and swimming with their dogs. We spotted tons of birds, snakes, fish, crabs, & even jellyfish... (eek!)

Tough life of the rivah people

After we had enough of the river, we played cornhole, swam in the pool, and ate tons of watermelon.... all in all, a fantastic way to spend a summer Saturday in VA.




Hope you all had a great weekend!
