Summer is in full swing. We've had a lot of visitors over the past few weeks...mostly refugees from the super-heated streets of NYC. We've been doing our best to treat them...and ourselves...to a proper upstate summer. Think: tubing the Espous, swimming in "The Deep", hiking through Plattekill Clove, kayaking on the Hudson. And, of course, no upstate summer would be complete without a backyard barbecue...so we finally threw down the $69.70 for a Weber grill and have been eating lots of delicious dinners on the patio ever since. This has inspired me to start sprucing up our back porch. One of the first things I did was string up some of my vintage paper lanterns with a cord of cafe lights. It instantly made it a hundred times more lovely out there. And they look good in the daytime and the nighttime! Win win.
Darbie, you're so cool.
