Toba Wildernest Marina

This is yet another amazing place.  We are sitting at a picnic table above the docks overlooking the Toba Wilderness.  We are the only boat on the docks.  The weather is warm and the sun is out.  What could be better than this?

After our arrival, we took a short walk up the waterfall behind the small lodge.  At the very top you have to use ropes to help you up some fairly steep areas.  Not too many people can claim that they have a waterfall in their backyard.

Janet has set out some steaks and we plan a BBQ to top off what has been a perfect day.  We will likely eat dinner on shore at the picnic tables.

These are a few of the photos we've taken thus far.  I'll post more later (I forgot to take the camera up to the waterfall, so we'll make another run up after dinner).

picnic table.  Check out the view in the background.
As promised, here's a few more photos of our hike up to the bluff and waterfall in Kyle's backyard.

than it looks.

Janet found the source.

Paul had his turn on the ropes.
