Rooftop View of the Fireworks

 

So we got ourselves a nice view from the rooftop, looking over Mirror lake, to see the fireworks.

It's cleared up, should be a good night for the fireworks.

You can see the full height of the build, and the view of the mountains behind the lake.

And here is a firework over the lake.  Kinda cool!

Golfing for Dad's Birthday at Craig Wood

 

You always need to get your practice in at the driving range, before you head to the course

I think my form has gotten nice!

Check out the vista views here!  This is a beautiful course to just look around.

We've got our fun hats and fun shirts, and a beautiful day to play golf.  Happy Birthday Dad!

Dad and I, rocking it out, as we love to do!

Lining up my shot, on the fairway, with Mom watching on.  Her ball is somewhere around here.

I mean the views are great, the tee boxes are nice, the greens are wonderful, the fairways are a bit wobbly.  But I'd come back just for the view again!

Mom, Me, and Dad, on the top of tee box at our last hole (we did 9), just look at how beautiful it is!

Me and Dad, hanging in the cart, as we head up to the last green.

 Ah.... a nice refreshing drink, after a long set of golf.  We went a brewery so Dad could try some beers :)

Arrival in Lake Placid!

 

We've arrived at our hotel.  I got lemonade, Mom got Champagne! And they had cookies!

Dinner time at the Dancing Bear!

Even had a nice waiter who got a full group shot of us all!

Swimming in the indoor pool!  Always one of my favorites.

Splashing around with Mom in the pool!

Stopping in Saratoga along the way to Lake Placid

 

Always fun to find cool monuments on battles and such, right next to a graveyard as well!

So have to get the pictures with Mom and Dad!

So this monument to the Saratoga Battle, was made in 1877, for the battle in 1777.

Dad and I rocking out!

And here I am in front of General Philip Schuyler's house!

Travel!

 

And here we are in one of my classic travel poses.  Headset on, movie player going, watching something to keep me entertained.

Me and Booka

 

Well Booka, it's time for us to leave this short couple day stop, to head off on vacation.  See you soon!

Booka's (Guns and Cards) - In July

 

I got my trusty Red Rifle B-B-Gun here.  Time to work on my target practice!

It's Pump action.  Takes a bit on it

And then make sure to look down the sights so that your shot is on target.

And now for some cards!
