Greetings from Lake Winnipesaukee!! . . .

Here are some of my favorite photos taken while on the lake . . .

I seriously don't think I'd ever leave here.  Except to maybe go grocery shopping once in a while.  There's only so much fish I can eat.  : )

Can you even imagine???? 

This one reminded me of a lake front fortress.  Definitely not my taste but very interesting to look at.

Absolutely gorgeous!!  My second favorite.


A tour boat.


My favorite house on the lake!!! 

Some lake loons.  It was hard to get a pic of them.  They kept popping their heads in and out of the water!!  : )


And this is why they wear life jackets!!!

Lots of little cottages and bungalows dotted the shores of the lake.  They have such a vintage feel to them.  It's so wonderful!!


A convenient store for boaters.  Of course, the kids had to stop there for candy almost every time they were on the boat!!







Next week, I'll post pictures of our trip to the top of Mount Washington.  Some scary stuff if you're afraid of heights!!!!!!!

Many blessings for a wonderful weekend ~ Wendy

Lots of Photos!!! . . .

Last week, we took a much needed family vacation to New Hampshire.  With Jim's company being on strike for almost a month of the summer, we were looking forward to fun in the sun (well, maybe not me.  I don't like the sun very much, truth be told!!)  and finally getting my Dad's boat back in the water. 

This is where we stayed.  We rented three cottages on Lake Winnipesaukee.  One for Jim, Megan and I.  Another for my sister and her boyfriend and two of their kids.  The third was where all the boys slept. 

Megan and Jakhai (our "adopted" son who was brought into our lives thru the Fresh Air Fund and who is now a semi-permanent member of our family.  I keep trying to talk his mom and dad into letting him live with us all year 'round but for some reason they just won't give in!!  LOL!! )  They're hanging out with Charlie.  That's what the kids named the plastic guy.  : )

Keeping cool with ice pops on a hot New Hampshire nite.

Annie and Brendan.  Cousins born a month apart who adore each other. 

Brendan hiding under the lake dock, trying to avoid the wrath of my lens. 

Muddy handprints left on the dock.

I'm not touching you!!  I'm not touching you!! 


Meggie on the beach.

Annie deep in thought.

Cousins.

Julia on the boat.

My sister, Cindy,  braving the tube with the girls.

Coming in from a spin around the lake.

A beautiful New Hampshire sky.

The muck at the bottom of the lake dried into clay.  My nephew Tristan decided to give himself a facial with it.  : )

Our oldest son, Connor, came to NH for a couple of days and the guys decided to go fishing early one morning.  Unfortunately, all they caught was seaweed!!

Megan, Annie and Julia.

Jakhai playing in the sand.

All aboard!!


It's nice to be blogging again!!  More photos of our vacation tomorrow.


Many blessings for a happy Tuesday ~ Wendy
