At 67F, I REALLY doubt it brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

It must be the German in me that thinks of the beach as one big dirt pile.

I'll try to enjoy it anyway :wink:

Last 4th of July we went to Heckscher Point Park and the water was nice and warm in Great South Bay, but the sea grass made for slimy swimming conditions. :(

Of course their is always the shark threat :roll: :roll: :roll:

Get used to it, Brian.....babies are great but your social life is gonna suffer for about, oh.......10 years.........just get a couple of beers in when you can and trade off weekend nights with severine (if possible) on who's gonna stay up all night or get up early.....

Thats alright, we didn't have much of a social life anyway... As long as I manage to get some skiing in next winter I'll be happy :) :beer: Luckily for me severine has been taking care of her at nights since I have to work and she won't be going back to work for about 8 more weeks..... after that it'll get interesting... ;)

im just curious what is the youngest you can start kids skiing... probably like 3-4???

I started my daughter at 3 my son at 5. Your whole life will be more interesting Brian. :beer:

After packing the last few days, tomorrow I'll be loading up the POD. Sunday we'll chill at the in-laws and Monday probably more packing...

4 glorious nights in a cabin, with two specific hikes planned: North Brother, Fort, Coe, South Brother; Baxter, Hamlin. Plus a lot of lounging around on the ponds. :)

See ya next week!

Pods is a cool idea... First time I have seen that.I guess that means you sold your house congrats. :beer: Packing the entire house is alot of work.

Annual big family camping trip in the "quiet corner" of CT. We'll be canoeing, swimming, fishing and hiking.

I'm also looking forward to taking my annual picture of my perspective on the lake while reclined on the comfy chair, book and drink in hand. The best of summer laziness!

working then relaxing

We have to work Sat/Sun at a nice crafts fair, we have a food vending business, right on the ocean just north of Brunswick, Maine. On Monday we will probably spend the day with the family at a lake nearby, dozens to choose from then dinner at my brother-in-law's pizza joint in West Poland next to Tripp Lake. Stay safe everyone!

Yep. Closing on both on 7/15! The new house is still not finished though... :eek:

Yeah, PODS are cool. They really extend the load/unload time. You rent it for a month and take your time packing and unpacking it. The 16 footer I got only cost ~$350 for the whole month. They'll even store it in a warehouse if you need them to for a nominal fee. I scheduled the move of it so I have three weeks load time and one week unload time. Everybody from the company I've dealt with has been great. Highly recommended. 8) I'll probably still need to rent a small truck though. :blink:

Wow, you must have alot of stuff! Although I'm sure we could easily fill a 16' POD with all of our crap. I'll come down with my pick-up if you need a hand...
