Lake Conroe


We went with some friends up to Lake Conroe for a couple of days. It is a nice lake about 50 miles NE of Kingwood. Some friends own a lake house with a boat and wave runner. The kids had so much fun and it was the perfect amount of time to get away.

The water was the perfect temperature. It isn't crytal clear like Bear Lake or Powell, but it doesn't look or feel dirty, either. It kind of looks like a bluish brown glass. We were excited because it is waaay nicer than the lake we live next to (Lake Houston).
We pretty much had the lake to ourselves. We wondered if there was something in the water we didn't know about. It rained in the morning and then was fine after lunch, but I guess everyone was at work since we were there Monday and Tuesday. It was great for us!

Sorry,I totally forgot to ask about how your trip went when I saw you this morning! Looks like you had a lot of fun. Good idea to show that we actually have some fun things to do out here in TX...

A weekend getaway at a Lake House! It looks like you and your family had a blast. I can't believe it's been over two years since our families went to Dinasour National Monument. We miss you!

Dang, your kids are crazy to jump that high off of something! Or was that you? Either way, you guys are daring!!!
Looks like you had a blast!
Sorry I didn't get a chance to come see you when I was down there. We'll for sure have to meet up next time.
