My Summer Vacation
First, we visited Don and Nancy White.  They live near Schenectedy.  This is the side of their house.  The wall is the old barn foundation.  What looks like a bush at the left is actually a magnolia tree planted in the patio, off the kitchen.
Afternoon Tea with Don and Nancy.
Nancy picked new potatoes from the garden for our lunch.  We also had fresh blueberries (first harvest!), raspberries, tomatoes, peas - what a feast!
Sean caught a 16-inch bass off the dock, the last keeper of the week...

Then we're off to the Mountains...
and everyone rallied 'round to help him celebrate!  (Even the refugees from the paintball factory.)
The hardest part of the week is saying goodbye.
