This is definitely our Summer House!

Pictures that make you go "aaahhh"

Pictures inside the buildings...very beautiful

I know these are dark, but double click on them to see them better.

Pictures around The Taft School

I cannot figure out how to post pictures next to each other so you are going to have to scroll down. See the top left windows that are open. That's where we live.

Pictures of the cards I've made

Here are a few of the cards I've made for the staff as well as the kids.

I asked the staff if I could help out and they assigned me the job of "The Cake Lady" where I order birthday cakes for the June/July birthday kids. They also asked me to make cards for them as well. It has been lots of fun so far.

WELCOME TO NEW YORK

THE BRIDGE FROM NEWBURG TO BEACON (ACROSS THE HUDSON RIVER)

BRIDGE

SAW THIS AS WE WERE WAITING FOR THE TOLL BRIDGE

PENNSYLVANIA

Jack about drove off the freeway when he saw these ham radio antennas. No joke! He figured with this many tyowers and antennas, this has to be a high-power contest station

ILLINOIS

CROSSING THE BRIDGE (ACROSS THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER)

TOP OF THE BRIDGE

WATER UNDER THE BRIDGE (LOL)

COOL CHURCH!
This is the circle we found where we had dinner. We were tired of eating at fast foods so we drove way away from the FWY and came to this circle...as we started to go around we saw this restaurant (no picture) looked like where the locals ate, so we went in. Also there were tons of cars out front. We went in and waited to be seated (like good citizens), finally one of the weary waitresses hollered out in a raspy voice..."you can seat yourselves....smoking in front of the buffet and non-smoking behind the buffet." Alrighty then. So we headed to the Non-Smoking Section behind the buffet. The food was awesome, we both ate well... for about $12 total!!

WELCOME TO ILLINOIS

I tried to get my grandson R.J. an official Cubs outfit, but we were too south in Illinois to find anything. Evidentally those folks are St. Louis fans.
