So fun! My grandparents always used to vacation up in Lake George, and I’m kind of sad I never got to see it before I moved south.
Hope the weather stays clear for you!
We are having our patio renovated, going to a birthday party, and little man and I are running some races on Monday. We haven’t had a good home weekend in a while, so it’s time.
