Aug 11th- A few of my favorite things...
~Of to the Adirondacks to discover...the perfect tree to climb
~The perfect sunset to welcome you back
~And the perfect campfire to toast a perfect marshmallow

Winslow is happy...He's off camping!

Travelling is half the adventure!

Finding the perfect tree to climb...this white Cedar, 

probably around 100 years old...
it's been waiting all this time for just the right girl to climb its branches

Sunset over Adirondack Lake

Then back for campfire and marshmallows...

Winlsow thinks this has been a perfect first day!
