Last licks of summer...

This summer has definitely been different for many of us. With my kids at home and the obvious covid restrictions it was less carefree. Although having the kids at home I have to say was truly wonderful I still needed a getaway for all of us to be together and a change of scenery. So glad we did! (we chose Lake Placid and it was wonderful!) So, for those of you looking for a gateway before the summer ends and school starts (whatever that looks like) take a look at some great ideas. Also, these places are great in September too and less crowded too.
