Jekyll Island GA, September 12 2011

The boy and I tagged along on a business trip with Jon and while hubby was working hard we spent the day in Jekyll Island GA.

This was Driftwood Beach, located on the north end of Jekyll Island, one of the most eerily beautiful beaches I have ever seen.

Shedding of the old...

This 56 inch baby was right outside the front door...As long as he/she stays a minimum of a foot outside that door, we are good.

Bow NH

Our NH vacation is over and as we were making our way south back to CT, we stopped in here for a hike and LB in Bow NH. The view and lake were a rather pleasant surprise but ended up being practical as well...The temps had topped over 100 degrees and after our hike we were hot! New England in summer, is simply paradise.

DIANA'S BATHS

Since marriage to Jon have been thumbing through Jill's photo albums admiring her families summer vacations for years. Mason and I both have been the most intrigued with Diana's Bath and this summer we experienced the thrill ourselves!

We had the most perfect and HOT day to enjoy a half a mile of cascading falls, waterspouts and granite basins. Now we are spoiled and perhaps ruined for future water fun? This was way better than any nasty ole water park.

Mount Washington NH 2011

This was taken on the Alpine Garden Trail up on Mt Washington, famously known for it's crazy and unpredictable weather. Today was so warm, almost but not quite hot and airless maybe?
Then all of a sudden the wind picked up, unpredictable is an understatement.

The Fat Floridian vs Eagle Mountain

Per the Eagle Mountain Letterbox clues: Not recommended for fat Floridians! Now this particular Floridian who is slightly overweight and more than a little out of shape was a bit hesitant...This was some hike, approx 2 miles round trip, 1300 ft plus in elevation. But an edict was issued and I just had to take the challenge. Happy to report mission was accomplished in 1.5 hours and I won the match!.
