I have no words.
(But I do have a thousand pictures.)
Today, we made it to one of our favorite places on Earth: Mohonk Mountain House, in the Hudson River Valley, and it’s just as magical and soul-filling as it’s always been for us—four, resplendent October visits running.
It’s always an investment to come here. But one that pays off—exponentially.
Today, God gifted us with the most incredible weather, the most glorious and playful moods—amongst both parents and children—and a property full of all the heavenly, outdoor activities we adore (even the legendary Labyrinth rock scramble and perilous Lemon Squeeze ascent!), without any crowds.
Honestly, I started crying a bit at dinner, when the sun was setting in a blaze of glory and I was sitting at the table, looking at all the engaged, smiling faces among my crew. All of us in one place, filling our cups and calming our central nervous systems over this long holiday weekend.
I truly couldn’t ask for more.
I’m going to soak up every last drop, stay in the moment (capture as many of them for posterity as I can!) and just give thanks, thanks, THANKS.
Okay…picture explosion incoming!
