Our 2019 Seneca Lake Trip

8/1/19  The whole family took a trip back to Seneca Lake this past June.  We rented a cottage just down the road from Max and Pete's, on a private cove with about five other houses.  The cottage was beautiful and extremely well equipped.  We had everything we needed to make fabulous meals and desserts.  The three bedrooms were perfect!  John and I had the master suite, Stacy had the other front bedroom, and the three kids were bunked in the third bedroom.

Branaugh was staying with us in Arizona, so we travelled from Phoenix to Rochester together. B and I in our matching outfits!

John, just two weeks out from his MI, taking it easy!  It was the perfect place to relax.  Very quiet - the Women's Cup Football to watch - books to read - and games to play.


Max and Elise:


Rather a nice looking couple!  Yikes! They are cute!


Ma and Pa Kettle on the porch:


One of our fabulous breakfasts.

Tom's Famous Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs! No matter how hard I try, I just can't seem to have them turn out as tasty as Tom's.

B at the boat house.  She tried her hand at fishing, but the fish won.


Our baby doves!  They were nested in the wreath at the front door.  We were able to see them all take off for the first time.  Amazing!

Two beautiful weeping willows in the backyard:


Almost dinner time:

John enjoying the view of the shore from the middle of the lake:




Mama duck and EIGHT little ducklings!  They swam by every day:





It was the best vacation!  It was very special to have us all together in one spot - and such a beautiful spot!  We would love to come back.
