Last hurrah

At White Lake State Park in NH! What a gem of a place. The camp sites are large and the lake is beautiful.  We had a full weekend. A contingent of our 2-family group bagged three more 4000 footers in the White Mountains:  Willey, Field, and Tom. The kayakers in the crowd were treated to a group of six loons this year! At times we got up close and personal with loons popping up in front of us or even doing an interesting flying-paddle maneuver right by us. And the lake antics! Yes it takes skill to actually sit on an inflatable intertube but even more skill to stand on one!  Yet the youngest member nailed it. 9.7!! Then there was the hammock. A well appreciated Christmas gift put to good use. It was never idle and even was slept in overnight. The weekend was capped off by mini golf at Smitty's, a new location. No frills but good enough. Of course the best part of the weekend was the good eats by the campfire and the wonderful friends. Thanks Wendy, Miles, and Mike for another treasured memory.
