What a lazy weekend.
Our weekend was influenced by the scorching Mississippi heat, which kept us inside for the majority of the time. Saturday we piddled with small projects around the house, and after church on Sunday, we came home and displayed the epitome of lazy behavior.
Although it was nice to just sit and relax, Justin and I wanted to do something, anything really, outside. Considering the heat and my seemingly disappearing pot of patience towards 100 degree weather, we knew if we were going to be outside water had to be involved.
Around 4:30 we decided to pack a picnic dinner of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, apples and oranges, Cheez-Its, and lots of water, load Paisley and our ENO hammocks in the car and head out to the Homochitto River.
The temperature had cooled off only slightly to a still miserable 95 degree when we reached our destination, but with a refreshing breeze and the luck of finding a nice shady area, it was perfect. The Homochitto river is unlike any river in Georgia and South Carolina. The clear waters, the magnificently white sandbars, and the steady breeze made us feel as if we were on a beach, rather than in the middle of nowhere, Mississippi.
It was beautifully fun and romantic. Happy Monday!
