Sweet Day

The kids and I languished in the hot sun at Ulster county pool for the day then met Pete for Mini-Golf (and I actually won!) Then we had a delicious dinner at Neko’s …

Surprise Deer at Beach

Just as we pulled out of the parking lot at the beach, Tuesday, there were several deer eating the grass. You just don’t see this in Oregon!

We played frisbee and Pete boogie boarded. Late in the afternoon it got very windy.

Wild Bouquets 2

More luscious wild flowers bouquets. I’m sure I’d pay a fortune for in a shop. (If you could even find such stuff.)

My Wild Bouquets

How they take my breath away! And fill the home with the joy of service.

A Business Endeavor

Sophie’s friend Britney held a fundraiser to stop a nasty development, “Crossroads” in New Paltz, and sold handmade tiles and photos of the Shawagunk Mountains. We visited for tea and fun.

Oh! And you could get your picture taken with the doggies in pirate costume. Perhaps I’ll add a photo later–at an added cost, of course! *grins*

Dave & Buster’s at a Very Big Mall

Pete took us on a mystery drive. We found out it was to see Batman at IMAX! But then it was all sold out! On a Monday! Well, it was its first weekend and it was (Lord rest his soul) Heath Ledger after all, his last movie… So we went to Dave & Buster’s for fun instead. Pete always saves some tokens for the end when the kids have run out. Sophie ended up with a card with about 1000 extra on it for next time!

So, BTW, the next day we came all the way back and got into see Batman!! I thought it was great. Soph’s favorite was the Joker–so sad about Ledger. And both Pete and Zeke the experts, felt it was good but wasn’t that great.
