Lake George

We just got home from an amazing camping trip in Lake George NY.  We camped out at Lake George Escape. Our friends the "G" family stayed at the campground too. So our boys were very happy to have their friends to play with.  We also visited friends of ours at their cabin on Brant Lake.  I took hundreds of pictures and I have many posts to make about our trip, but I couldn't help but upload a little taste of what we have been up to the past week.  All these photos are straight out of my camera and no editing. So you might see them appear in later posts after editing. We had so much fun and I just couldn't wait to share them. Enjoy (sorry this is a long one).

 
Can you see the tubes in the picture above? Our campground was alongside the Scroon River.  There were lots of lazy river tube rides.
 
 
 
A night out at Lake George Village. 



Eating ice cream in the Adirondacks in Adirondack chairs. What could be better than that?!


Starry nights over our campsite. We were lucky to be there during a meteor shower!!!

 
We went hiking on lots of rocks, caves and waterfalls.




The Rodeo my favorite!


It was our friend's first time at the rodeo I am so glad they loved it. Since I was the one that really wanted to go. We all enjoyed it so much.



Bareback riding


Chilling at the cabin.

 
Isn't the view fantastic! 


 
Back at Lake George for more fun.
 




 
The sunset from our campground.


Back to Brant Lake.


 
I got to spend hours rocking on this porch swing knitting my Quill. It was heavenly.  


 
Kayaking at our campground. It is so nice camping on a river!
 

We rented a pontoon boat and headed out on Lake George for the day.

 
Everyone took a dip in the Lake (except me). Someone had to stay with the boat right? Also that water was cold. 

 
So there is a little taste of our trip. We had such an amazing time.
