I've been so quiet lately, but then again, I've gone into a mini-"hibernation" mode. Things have been busy and are gearing up for a rash of events, but I'm proactively taking something of an emotional/mental break.
A couple of weeks ago, we spent 3 days at my brother's farm, which is just south of Lake Ontario and just north of the Finger Lakes region. While the days were slightly cool, it made the feeling of the sun touching your cheeks feel heavenly. Geese flew in formations above our heads, and we had a campfire and made s'mores--which led to a late bedtime for the Governor. Of course, Conan had to shrink his 6-foot-plus frame to fit on a futon to sleep, but I think overall we enjoyed ourselves.
The Governor loved to go "fishing" at the pond on their property. He would take reeds and dip them in the water, pretending to catch very large fish.
Conan stayed out and drank with the other men by the fire, and talked about politics.
I completed two necklaces and got my teeny-tiny-baby fix for the time being, as I got to hold my five-month old niece.
