River Fun

Finally, after many, many years, Norma and Charles decided to build a house at Gantt. Words cannot describe how much fun we've had this spring and summer at The River. We moved in March 2011 and basically, we've kept the house occupied ever since. Thanks to Jill and Drew, we all learned how to wake surf; Jody, of course, was a natural. Jackson and John David have mastered the art of slaloming, following a Jackson and Thompson family tradition. All the boys enjoy wakeboarding and tubing. Growing up, we spent lots of weekends skiing with Big Daddy behind the wheel! I'm so thrilled we are passing on our love of the water to our kids.

Our favorite spot is the porch, where we love to swing and rock while visiting, napping, and reading. I'm sitting here now enjoying a July shower. The weather is cool, and we feel as if we were in the mountains. It's hard to believe we are only ten minutes from town.
