August is almost over – aggggggg! And, lucky me, I spent time at the beach and at the lake, a lake I have been visiting for thirty years in central New York, where friends own a home and are inclined toward hosting…it’s gorgeous there no matter the weather, and the lake water is clean and cold and every time I get in it feels like renewal and rebirth. Among the annual rituals are a boat ride to a middle spot in the 16+ mile long lake for a swim; this time we went into town for donuts and egg sammiches, and then dove in, along with two of the hosts’ labradors, of which there were a total of six in various houses along a lane primarily occupied by my host’s family members. There’s a cockapoo around as well but she’s over 15 years old, and isn’t doing much running around, let alone boating and swimming. Here are a few pictures from one of my favorite places in the world, where I get to hang out with a few of my favorite peeps in the world as well. #LuckyAF #GratefulAF
