Day 4 - Hiawassee Vacation

Last night, we had a sleepless night in the cabin.  William has had a cold for days that turned into croup last night - very bad seal bark, fever and trouble breathing.  It broke my heart holding him and him saying "mommy, I can't breathe."  Was very scary for us as we did not have a humidifier nor did we know any local physicians.  I sat in a steamy bathroom and held him all night long.  But he had croup as a baby so we knew that it is very scary but rarely a medical emergency!

So this morning was a very slow morning - Will slept until noon!  David and Zach spent the morning fishing by the river.  By afternoon, Will was begging to go play - rarely does anything slow him down.  So we took a leisurely ride on Lake Chatuge!  

A very beautiful lake but we enjoy Lake Keowee and Lake Jocassee better because there are sandy islands to dock and play!
