September 2017 – Lobster, Fall Foliage, and a Star Party
September 19, 20, 21... In Watkins Glen, Tuesday was laundry and grocery shopping day so we hung out at the ever-pretty and dog-friendly Watkins Glen KOA Resort, but Wednesday was Waterfall and Apple day and Thursday was the Lake Seneca Wine Trail day.

As much as I missed hearing the roar of the ocean at night, I … Continue reading Kennebunkport, Maine

The Boss couldn't wait to leave for Salisbury Beach in … Continue reading Thru Connecticut and Massachusetts
