2012 East Coast Trip – Day 17 (Lake Day 7)

We have done so little in the last four days that it hardly seemed worth it to jot anything down.  We’re resting and sometimes cooking, and always eating, and pretty much always watching TV.  In the evenings, we’ll take a dip in the lake.  By day we might also do a little house or boat repair – never anything too major though.

On Saturday, we went to the windmill (the Mennonite craft place), and after walking through half of the place, the skies opened up and we got dumped on big time.  We got home wet.  The sun then came out and it became very muggy.  Good thing there is a lake nearby!

On Sunday, we drove all the way to my dad’s church.  It takes 1.5 hours to get there.  The service was wonderful.  We had Chinese buffet for lunch.

Jeffrey got swimmer’s ear, so on Monday, Jeff and I went to the doctor to get ear drops.  We had to deal with road repairs on the way out.  It was not fun.  (we also found the house of the one guy in the area who owns a Porsche Cayman – he sometimes exercises with my parents at the gym and always asks about my Cayman).  After the visit, we decided to take another path home.  It started on a mountain top.  The views were lovely, and the homes were very nice and new.  We then went down to some river in the forest, and then to where the really poor people lived (all within a mile!).  The housing began to improve the closer we got to Penn Yan.  Jeff and I did some grocery shopping and then went to pick up his prescription.  It wasn’t ready and somehow they lost it.  We waited 35 minutes.  Since it was now lunchtime, we stopped off at Seneca Farms and had a very nice lunch… and bought some ice cream.

Today we picked blueberries (15 pounds) and went to a farmer’s market.
