We have so many fantastic lakes within an hour and a half of the house we rarely go to the river, but sometimes we get a wild hair and head out after work on a Friday, cruise to a sandbar while some burgers and brats sizzle on the grill, beach at said sandbar and splash around, check out baby turtles, play horseshoes if there are others boaters there and just have a great family evening. Then we cruise back to the ramp after dark and enjoy the city lights along the river. I highly recommend it.
