There is nothing like a quick weekend trip to mix up the everyday routine! Sunday afternoon I got back from a little jaunt to Long Island, New York, where I grew up (after leaving Greensboro at 6:30 Saturday morning to catch an early flight out of Raleigh). It was great to see my group of childhood friends again - Kathleen is getting married, and we surprised her with a shower - and the weather held out, which was a surprise for all of us! Correction: it held out just long enough for us to take a beautiful ride through the Peconic Bay on Jeanne's new boat, and then the downpour came. That was fine with us all. We still got to see a gorgeous sunset and more swan families on the Peconic River and the bay than I ever remember being there.
My apologies for the fuzzy photo... I left the camera at home and relied on my phone to take pictures. During the day it's still great!
