Up(state), up(state) & away

Tomorrow morning, I'm heading up to the Hudson Valley for a long weekend with DK and five of our favorite people (the same group as last fall's apple-orchard excursion). We're staying in a house so lovely, it makes me sigh just looking at the photos:


I know I'll feel right at home (what with having the same comforter set and all).


I don't care what the weather report says: there will be swimming, there will be sunning, there will be hammocking. (Plan B: there will be way too much rosé drinking, there will be competitive Balderdash playing.)

My full wishlist of activities also includes blueberry picking, hiking, classic-diner eating, and, of course, thrifting. But I accede to my pals' momentum, or lack thereof--after all, there's nothing wrong with some good ol' R&R.

And I'm perfectly content to just pretend that I live in a gorgeous Georgian Colonial, if only for 72 hours.
