Scenes from New York
I spent the first part of my vacation last week at my daughter and son-in-law’s house in Columbia County, NY. It is very rural and, although it rained quite a bit, the scenery was lovely and the temperature did not get much higher than in the low 80’s.
These pictures show the entry to their house, their beloved “ladies” enjoying a drink and the little bird house that has ended up on the ground and now has been taken over by friendly field mice. mice.

The final picture is one that I took in Stanfordville, NY, which is in the adjoining county of Dutchess and is where they have their antique business. It is also where we all lived as a family back in the 60’s.

There are some very pretty places in rural NY, aren't there.
We enjoy driving to see friends who live beyond Watertown.
Looking at that last picture, I want to go too.
The last photo reminds me of the northern parts of WV. Beautiful country!!
That is some gorgeous country side Ginnie, and I know just how you feel about wanting to go back there..my place of growing up is also gorgeous and I wish I could live there too. Again :)
Wonderful photos. It looks like a beautiful place. I like the temperatures especially! We won't see low 80's here for a while.
