They are giving away a pic-a-nic basket and you do not have to be Yogi and Boo Boo to enjoy this beauty.  The cool canvas basket is a hip update to the older wicker models and its chock full of goodies.  Where do you like to picnic?

My favorite place is a spot on Kentucky Lake that we call Cousin Hill. 

When my kids were little their cousins used to come visit us for 2 weeks each summer. We found this great little cove the first year they were all here together. It used to have a great sloping hill of sand and the kids would climb up it and then slide all the way down to the water.

We spent hours floating on tubes in this little cove and exploring the small pond behind the cove.

They christened it "Cousin Hill" and it is our favorite place on the lake.

The sand slope has pretty much been eaten away by erosion, but this is still a great cove to relax in.
There is even an abandoned shipwreck on shore.

So grab a blanket and hike over to Appalachia and Beyond and check out their blog.

I can guarantee that if I win that picnic basket that I will be celebrating the 4th of July at Cousin Hill with that red, white and blue little beauty!
