Sisters and Sister-In-Law

Last week, Francie flew from Jacksonville to Providence, was met at the airport by Theo and both drove to Port Henry, NY, to meet Linda.
Thus began a week of reunion, roaming, memories, and almost constant chatter.

Linda and Jeff's house, high on a cliff overlooking Lake Champlain, is cozy and full of Linda's fabulous art.




Lou and Jeff, cozy too!




Linda showed us one of her color-filled murals--this one in a storefront in the
hilly town of Port Henry.

We visited Camp Dudley on the shores of Lake Champlain--where Spencer and Faber Kelly went during the summers--great rocks and an O-mouthed totem pole.

Friends had a farm with goats and this hotel for chickens.

We climbed Coon Mountain,




Francie every inch the calm, cool mountaineer.

The requisite summit photos.




Linda contemplating an extremely decadent chocolate cupcake: to eat it or not?
(We ate it.)

We jabbered the whole way, the whole time, the whole week.
We had years to catch up on.
