May 13-20 - Lots of Visitors

“Family and friendships are two of the greatest facilitators of happiness.” – John C. Maxwell

We had a busy week...weather is starting to improve, here and there, so we can finally get out of the boat. The theme for this week was visitors. Our first visitors arrived on Wednesday. Barbara and David from Miss My Money are back in the area getting their boat ready for the season. We had a great visit and enjoyed lunch at a local place overlooking the lake. We've known them for a long time and it's always nice to reconnect.
After lunch we took Barbara and David up to Taughannock Falls. All the rain we've had makes the waterfalls beautiful.
On Friday our son and grandkids arrived for the weekend and they brought the sun with them. It was a beautiful weekend and we had a great time playing with the kids. We stayed very busy...the kids wore us out and we wore the kids out having so much fun.

We had a wonderful sunset and enjoyed seeing the full moon rise over the marina on Friday night.
After breakfast on Saturday we started our fun at the Ithaca Farmers Market. Where we picked up ingredients for a wonderful dinner.
Our next stop was at the Ithaca Children's Garden. It's an amazing place...one of the kids favorite places to go and mine too. We could spend all day here. This is the frog (tadpole) pond. 
After playing hard at the garden we enjoyed lunch on the patio at the Ithaca Beer Co. We got to relax and the kids had fun playing with the other children while we waited for our pizzas.
In the afternoon we enjoyed a little time on the lake. The kids enjoyed driving Poppy's boat.
Sometimes you just have to take a break from having fun.

Our last visitors for the week were Ted and Sally from Amici. They stopped by on their way home from seeing other friends in the area. We spent the afternoon visiting and enjoying a picnic at the Lucas Vineyard. We may only see each other once or twice a year, but it seems like we've never been apart. Catching up with friends is always fun.
