Luie Boone has been hearing a lot about basketball lately, and that is entirely the fault of his hooman sister Rachel. Rachel loves basketball. She watches games very seriously and sometimes suddenly yells at the television. Luie Boone does not always understand why this is happening, but he supports her enthusiasm.

It's time to take some lively trots in Lake Toxaway, North Carolina! The history of Lake Toxaway, North Carolina, brings bark-citement to Luie Boone. Why? Because most of the history concerns the lake itself! Back in 1890, E.H. Jennings established the Toxaway Company after visiting the area and dubbing it the Switzerland of America. That got Luie Boone's hooman sister, Rachel, very intrigued. She would love to go to Switzerland one day!

Enjoy the warm sandy beaches, cool ocean waters, and clear blue skies in the Outer Banks of North Carolina!
