its net of wonder forever."—Jacques Cousteau

September Updates

“Life is too short for drama or petty things, so laugh hard, love truly and forgive quickly.” –Author Unknown

Our summer adventures are quickly coming to an end...the weather is cooling down, the leaves are changing color and boats are beginning to leave the marina. 
We decided to celebrate Stan's birthday a little quieter this year since we've been so busy the past few months. We spent the afternoon at the Lakeshore Winery enjoying a glass of wine and a nice picnic. Dinner was onboard.
We didn't have a lot of rain during the summer, but September was a wet cool month and we had lots of beautiful rainbows.
The harvest moon was spectacular and we have one of the best places in the marina to watch it come up.
On the last warm day this fall we drove down to Corning to visit with friends that keep their boat at the marina. We had a great visit with Bob and Loretta and they gave us a tour of Corning. Next summer we might even make it to the Corning Museum.
Our last family vacation was at a house on Cayuga Lake that we stayed at last summer. It was one of our favorite houses. 
Here's a link to pictures of the interior of the house
Our first day at the house was beautiful and we truly love this view. We spent a lot of the long weekend relaxing, reading, painting, watching movies and playing games...online and together.  
The end of the season marshmallow roast.
The Sciencenter in Ithaca is amazing and we all have fun when we spend time there.
We even had a little sun to enjoy Buttonwood Grove Winery, which is right across the street from the house.
More marshmallows and good times around the fire pit.
One clear sign that fall is here...the seagulls are taking over the marina.
