Stars Above, Water Below

Posted by Jennifer

The stars aligned in several ways during our recent stay on the New York/Canada border. 1.  We got to see our friends Todd and Suzanne, whom we’ve known for nearly 30 years, and their children.  Because they live in London, it’s not as if we can just drop in on them whenever we feel like [...]

Gone Fishin’

Posted by Jennifer

We loaded up the car and left yesterday for our annual rendezvous with friends at the St. Lawrence River.   We actually packed jeans and sweatshirts – it is supposed to get down to 65 degrees at night.  Heaven! This may be one of the last trips the five of us take together.  Hard to believe.    Enjoy [...]

Thousand Islands, Thousands of Activities

Posted by Jennifer

Nobody but a kid would look at a crawdaddy and think “earring!” More scenes from our recent heavenly stay at the Thousand Islands, where there’s always a lot of relaxation going on, and also always a lot to do.  Malcolm & Hugh had good luck fishing for bass.  This photo looks like sushi, but we [...]

Beautiful Balloons

Posted by Jennifer

I had never heard of sky lanterns until last weekend, when we met our friends Todd and Suzanne for our families’ traditional late summer rendezvous. They had seen these breath-taking inventions at their children’s school in England, and ordered some to send skyward at their cabin in upstate New York. People had to pair up to launch [...]

Life is Beautiful, Unfair

Posted by Jennifer

We were tooling north on NY’s I-81 for our annual rendezvous with friends at the Thousand Islands. Almost there, last exit before Canada! Chris drove while 17-year-old Ian rode shotgun, wearing giant white shades and giant lime-green headphones. And why was I not in the front seat, where grown-ups belong? Because I was sitting in [...]
