holler

Well the rain has started, and i am far from prepared!  The first item on my list for this coming weekend is to buy some rain boots, something I have never before needed, but seem absolutely crucial here.  Within the first five minutes of my walk to school this morning my umbrella broke, which was a disappointment, going to have to invest in a quality one of those too..

Jared and I visited the adorable town of Skaneateles last weekend.  It probably would have been cuter if it wasnt torrentially raining, but it is a cute town, sitting right at the edge of a large lake (which supposedly is an incredible blue color).  The homes there are very pretty as well.  As we drove around we noticed that maintaining a yard here is extremely easy… everything is automatically green from all the rain.  It is even difficult to find golf courses because their green color doesnt stand out like in does in California.  Anyway, we spent our time in a sweet little cafe, sipping on hot chocolate, and planning the year ahead, all the while peering outside at the buckets of rain.  An excellent weekend if-i-do-say-so-myself!
