Gabe and I had Monday off for Columbus Day and, even though the kids had school, we made our own long weekend. We schlepped up to our cabin in the Adirondacks with friends. It took forever to get there but, as usual, once we were there, it was a true escape.
Autumn had already arrived there. The air was brisk and the leaves had begun to change. We roasted marshmallows, carved pumpkins, strolled through the woods, and watched the dogs frolic. Some brave souls even swam in the icy lake.
A perfect beginning to fall.
And even though we had a long drive home, we carried some of that peace back with us.
