Glad you had a good time. Larry is on vacation the last week of August and we are going up to Lake Placid for a few days…the 26th, 27th and the 28th. I hope we have good weather…not to hot and no rain. I’m ready for Fall. I’m over the hot and humid days. We wait all winter for nice weather so we can open the windows and get outside in the sun but this spring/summer has really been yucky. So rainy to start and now so hot that you can’t even go outside to enjoy unless you are around water and can’t open windows because we have the air on…. Bring on Fall!!

It was a short hike in that loops around to Sis and Bubs Lake. There’s a deck with benches and there were people on that with a dog. There were 2 women on the beach with a dog but I tried to keep them out of my shot. I hope the smoky haze is gone and the air quality improves before your weekend trip. It was very hazy in Old Forge and Inlet this weekend…much worse than it was here. The sky is so eerie looking, reminds me of 2 years ago. I’m glad that you are at the tail end of buying out your lease, everything is always a difficult process but it will be nice to not have to turn in and lease every few years, I used to dread that 😩. Have a happy Tuesday 💜

The 6 story treehouse is at Cayuga Nature Center. It’s not far from Taughannock Falls. The kids really liked it and had fun. Liam made friends with 3 boys that were there. They were running around playing tag in the tree house. When do you leave for the ADK. We haven’t been up there since last August when we rode the rail bikes.

That sounds like something the kids would like to do. We took them to Howe Caverns last year and they really enjoyed it. When we finished the tour they got their bag and did their mining!! They were so proud of their treasures!!

Hi Kathy.  I think I remember you going to The Eternal Flame Waterfall. We are taking the kids on Friday. I know to bring a lighter because the flame seems to be out more often than not from my research. Is there any other tips or advice you can give or anything I should know?

Sunday is supposed to be very hot and humid, perfect day to go to the movies and enjoy the air conditioning. One of our favorite coffee shops is located in Tully…Bloomin Cup. If you have time stop to get a coffee to enjoy on the deck…I highly recommend. Is Beth staying with you for the weekend or is she just in for the day? What fun sissy things do you have planned? Supposed to rain this afternoon, I hope it does for the sake of our grass. It needs water regardless, it’s starting to turn brown in spots. Hard to believe just a few weeks ago we were water logged!! Have a great day!!💜

I’m glad Michaela is doing well. Sounds like she married into a really nice family that will more than make up for having a shitty Mom. Thank Goodness She got out of what could’ve been a completely different story for her. It’s sad that Jennifer is going to miss out on all the things. I guess she can’t blame anyone but herself. What a weird weather day it is. Looks like rain and then it’s sunny. The guy came to put grub killer on our lawn today. He comes 4 times a year doing fertilizer, weed killer, grub control and flea and tick prevention. Now I need it to rain Friday morning. Says on the paper to heavily water lawn in 2 days to ensure grub control saturation. Now that I want it to rain it won’t. 🤪

Maybe if I saw Bill’s Dad I would remember. I can’t place him but the break in story does sound familiar. Boy, we had lots of stories!! So many strange people/ and things …lol. That is so sad about Martha. She’s so young. I feel bad for the kids too. I know what they are going through and it’s not easy. It makes me sad to think of the road ahead for them. How is  Michaela doing?

Oh dear, that is so sad. I do remember Bill. He used to come into the store regularly during Covid. I think I remember him having cancer but I might be wrong. Didn’t he plow your driveway in the winter?  Martha would come into the store quite a bit too. She was always asking me tech questions and bringing her computer in asking me to help her. I’m not very tech savvy. She seemed like a very nervous person. I remember always feeling bad for her, and him. They both seemed sad all the time. I don’t remember his Dad though. My niece used to date Max way back when. I remember them buying a house in Solvay too, buy the electric department….Hunts Hill area. I bought my car out when the lease was up in 2021. There weren’t many new cars available at the time and the guy that came to inspect it suggested I keep it because it was in great shape and low miles. I’m glad I did because I like my car and I hate getting a new one. We don’t have any car payments now and that is nice however Larry will probably get a new truck next year. His is getting old and the body has some rust. I don’t blame you, I would rather not work in the summer either…or the winter for that matter…lol!! I babysat this aft
