Our new home






Our shared lake right and jetty






Green Island







Skaneateles, holiday destination of the rich and famous!



It's true, actually. The Clintons have a holiday place here. (Yes, those Clintons). It has it's own lake. And we have rights over a very tiny portion of its shore line. Which means we can keep our boat on a mooring right off the jetty near our house and take it out for long leisurely afternoon jaunts, or hoon about towing skiers or inner tubes to our hearts content, with no queuing for public ramps, or domestic disputes over the best way to back the 4x4 into the water to retrieve the boat.



Oh, if only we had a boat.



We do have a green canoe. It came with the house.



And what a house! Compact and bijou, Mostin, compact and bijou. But it has everything we need and plenty of space for visitors downstairs in a pretty much fully equipped apartment. It has its own entrance and an interconnecting door - that locks.

    The old ones really are the best!

    So glad to hear that there is a lock......!
