Getting around to blogging gets difficult when you stay busy and on the go. We enjoyed Friday in Ithaca getting to know our dock mates and taking in a little of the annual Ithaca Festival...arts and crafts, food, music and a parade. Ithaca is a really eclectic town, so people watching is definitely a fun activity. People watching at the evening parade was more fun than the parade itself, but we gave up before the parade ended so we could have a nice dinner at Maxie's. Everyone we've met in town has recommended it and it didn't disappoint. It's definitely a place we'll go back to.

On Saturday we drove down to Pennsylvania to celebrate our daughter in law and grandson's birthdays. What a celebration...taco night complete with a fire pit for roasting marshmallows on Saturday to celebrate with Bryt and a cute Bob the Builder party on Sunday to celebrate Graham's 3rd birthday…lots of food and fellowship...what a great weekend. 

Now we are back in Texas for a week visiting family and checking on things here. More blog updates when we return to The Pearl.
