Vacation

Hello!

We just got back from our annual family vacation in the Adirondacks. Usually we go to Eagle Bay, but this year we stayed in Big Moose, which is a bit less "main stream". We all had a great time. The first day, we picked up pizza on the way to the cabin, then ate dinner around 7:45, then I found a Rochester trivia book, so we had fun with that. The next day, we went on a hike, the name of the place we went to is Billy's Bald Spot. Later that same day, my Uncle John came with his two daughters, Laura and Elizabeth, so that brought the crowd up to nine (four of us, my grandparents, and then my uncle). Sunday, my Aunt Emily and Uncle Andy came, I went for a kayak with my Uncle John, and Alyson, Dad, Elizabeth, and Laura went for a canoe. Monday, my Grandmother's cousin Priscilla and her daughter Kathy came over, while Uncle John, Elizabeth, Alyson, Dad, and I went for a walk to Constable Pond, which is a five-mile hike. Tuesday, Alyson, Uncle John, Elizabeth, and I went on a seaplane ride, while Dad stayed with Laura, who was sleeping in the car (she is 21/2), while everyone else went to Moss Lake, and my grandparent's friend Marylin came over to the cabin. Everyone ended up at Moss lake to go swimming. Wednesday, I didn't really feel like doing anything, and Uncle John, Elizabeth, and Laura all left for Old Forge, then for their house, and then Andy and Emily left, too. Thursday, Alyson, Dad, and I all took a hike up Black Bear Mountain, and decided that we would rather have rocks in our socks on Black Bear Mountain, than have black bears in our socks on Rocky Mountain. Mom, Grandma, and Grandpa went on a short walk to a waterfall, then we all went to Moss Lake to go swimming. Friday, we packed up, ate brunch at the Big Moose Station restaurant, then the four of us went to the West Pond Waterfall, and West Pond itself. After that, we went to Inlet and hung out there, mom and Alyson went to the bead shop, and Dad and I went to the dock on fourth lake, and then we all went to the farm where we get our CSA share, and then home.
