The Adirondacks

Here's a small sampling of some of our pictures from visiting the Adirondacks. The weather didn't cooperate very well, but we had a good time anyway! The Adirondack Museum was well worth the visit. The girls especially loved the hands-on experiences, like the Adirondack lean-to, doing the wash, and the canvas tent.




















We also visited Fort Ticonderoga, which was an interesting historical stop.

New England Adventure

{Author's Note: I am writing these posts AFTER our trip, but posting them on the correct days of our trip. I do not like to broadcast when we are going to be out of town and would rather share it when we get home.}



We loaded up our 5th wheel camper and truck for our great New England adventure! Our destination is my cousin's wedding in New Hampshire this Saturday, but we are making a family vacation of it (before and after).


On the road again...
