Gourd Island, Lake George

Camping? Why yes, thank you, I think I will. Sure thing! Nothing better! Camping, the tent in the wilderness type... not a Holiday Inn, not even a nice travel trailer or 5th wheel. Oddly enough I couldn't tell you the last time I really did this type of camping. I enjoyed the planning, no surprise, and the packing and preparations. A single-site island on the pristine Lake George? (Our camping island has it's own web page!)

It was only 3 days, 2 nights but WOW what an amazing, awesome experience. Nature breeds connection and silence creates the space for communication. Chris and I have been together nine years and this was the first time we took the time to be frank and open, honest and intimate about many things in a very long time. There's something about a raging campfire and a star packed night sky that allows an irresistible reboot.

The photo is for real... the most amazing sunset I've seen in a very long time!
