Summer Vacation


The day was finally here. We were on our way to the airport bound for Boston. Everything went well with the flight. After getting all six checked bags we make our way outside to catch a bus to the rental car office. That was an adventure. We loaded up in the minivan to begin the real adventure of finding our way to the cabin on the lake, a.k.a. "The White House". We determined that the northeastern states do not believe in signs to notify you of upcoming intersections, exits, etc. Just a couple of crazy maneuvers and we arrived safely in Harrison. The first night we were therewe had stayed at Wyndham Way Motel. The boys (yes I mean all three) were eager to get going the next morning to go to the lake. We attended Shelly's 50th birthday bash that afternoon into the evening. Some of our day trip during the week included Popham Beach (with 63 degree water and not much warmer on the land), StoryLand, Freeport and Museum of Science (in Boston). Linda, Paula, Christine, Tucker and Jessie went with us except for the Boston trip. The kids had a great time playing with their cousins that they only get to see once or twice a year. Mom and Dad enjoyed seeing some of the northeast. We decided there was too much to see in one week, especially in Boston.

Looks and sounds like ya'll had a fantastic vacation! Seeing pics of the White House and the lake sure did bring back memories of our '99 trip there! Thanks for sharing!
