Sometimes, when we least expect it, something wonderful happens. On those sweet occasions, precious memories are made. They can be recalled when the going, once again, gets rough.
We stopped at a market to pick up some fresh peaches and cherries, paper towels, and nice quality napkins. It's important to bring even a small offering to thank the hosts for their hospitality.
Once we reached our destination, we took a fabulous motor boat ride on the lake and the spray of water into my face as we splashed across the surface make me laugh like a little girl. It was wonderfully refreshing.
Later, we bobbed in the water on big inner tubes and then swam to our hearts' content.
For lunch, we had delicious cheeseburgers from the grill, pickles, salad, and potato chips and everything tasted so delicious.
By late afternoon, we thanked our gracious hosts with all our hearts and said goodbye. I got a lot of sun so look a little bit like a lobster but the fun we had all day long was worth it.

What a fun time and a lovely lake! I am trying to have some great times this summer with my kids!
Dearest Susan,
That is always special to spend time with dear friends at the water side! So relaxing and you return home refueled and fresh.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Love,

Yea for you! What a wonderfully refreshing, relaxing day! I love Upstate New York and have been there many times to visit with friends. Last summer we spent the day at the lake house my friend rented -- her 5 kids, my 2 and another friend's 3 boys. The kids had the time of their lives canoeing, paddle boating, swimming! Have a great weekend. Tammy
