We enjoyed two separate nights at Tanglewood this month. One evening listening to the Boston Pops Orchestra playing the score to Star Wars: A New Hope. The other was obviously John Williams’ Film Night with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. We couldn’t have asked for better weather or company while checking this adventure off the list!
We took a page out of the first-generation’s playbook to celebrate the start of year 17 for Ahab and I.
Step 1: Find a cabin (with no service)
Step 2: Trick some friends to join you
Step 3: Play a lot of card games
Step 4: Have a little too much fun
Step 5: Center it around a lawn gnome that makes it all possible
We did a lot of adventuring on this trip, but in true first-generation fashion, we didn’t take any pictures. Okay, obviously I am not a saint and we took one. Besides that, all we have from this trip are stories that will be “big-fished” each time they are remembered and shared!
Another road trip under the crews’ belts! This trip we focused on a handful of beautiful State Parks across New York filled with timeless relics and future friendships!
This is, technically, our third time at Niagara Falls. Each visit we have experienced it a different way. The first time was only from the U.S. side. The second time was very late at night from the Canadian side. This time it was from both and viewing it from the Skylon Tower! The next time we come may have to be when they shut it off for repairs in the future!
Watkins Glen State Park is the most visited state park in New York if you exclude Niagara Falls. We met a lot of happy trekkers who let curiosity get the better of themselves which usually is because of Ahab. Reflecting on it now, I think the location is really what inspired it!
Perusing the botanic grounds of Cornell this morning was an interestingly relaxing trek!
We thought we would only get to see the falls from the overlook point. Taking a mile-long hike from the bottom of the gorge into the base of the falls was an added bonus! The rain part way in was refreshing also!
The first stop on our road trip around the Finger Lakes of New York. The Gorge Trail in Robert H. Treman State Park held a treasure trove of sites along the two-mile trek!
