Who can blame me? It has been 4 months since I have hugged our grand-daughter. We look forward to seeing her Mom and Dad too but video chats and pictures just aren’t enough to keep up with the huge changes in a nearly 2-year-old. I can hardly wait! We settle in at our next new home, Sylvan Lake Beach Park in Hopewell Junction New York. More stay at home orders restrict lots of activities but the park is green and quiet with a little lake to stroll the shore. There are lots of birds including hawks, osprey and bald eagles to watch. The kids are a few miles south but it is an easy drive so we hope to see everyone often. This should make a great home base for more family time.
