It's Upstate NY.
It's Upstate NY. Adirondack beauty, the Finger Lakes, lush vineyards, great coffee, canal paths winding through quaint towns, beautiful produce, incredible restaurants, lovely, friendly, giving people and snow. We live here. Grow up here. Raise our children. Eat chicken french. And play euchre. When you live on a great lake you also learn to do other things... like storm shopping and shoveling your roof. It's great entertainment. But perhaps the most valuable thing we learn is how to LIVE ABOVE THE GREY. Not the broken, semi-white, puffy clouds...we're talking the one, solid grey mass that fills our sky on many days, and ok...sometimes multiple, consecutive days. Some choose to stay in bed. Some move south. But the rest of us learn to live above it. We get something bubbling on the stove, fill the house with aromatherapy, invite the friends, get the cards and put on some great music. We roll up our sleeves and get involved. We make a change. W
