Fall is Beautiful Along the Lake!

Another awesome week at the lake.

 

The leaves were spectacular and

so were the views.

 

I also purchased a map

showing the names of

nearby mountains.

(This is my Father's influence

coming out in me after all these years!)

 

 

 

I discovered the biggy is rightly

 named Oxbow Mountain.

 

 

This visit was different than

the others.

 

We're getting to know more

people on the lake and the

surrounding area.

 

Everyone is so friendly

and welcoming!

 

Plus, we made our last canoe trip

and pulled the dock in.

Winterized the house too,

although we're still open

for rentals.

Fall in the Lake Pleasant area

did not disappoint us...

 

Looking forward to seeing

what snow adventures

await this year!

 

Snowmobiling...

Skiing at Oak Mtn

or Gore Mtn

 

Or how about some ice fishing?

 

Stay tuned!

 

 

 

Falling For the Adirondack Mountains

It is hard not to love fall when you are surrounded

by such beautiful views!
 

The leaves have been gorgeous

and smell of fall is in the air.

 

 

How about a recipe for the occasion!

 

Pumpkin Pancakes:

 

1 1/2 cups milk

1 cup pumpkin puree

1 egg

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

2 tablespoons vinegar

2 cups all-purpose flour

3 tablespoons brown sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon ground allspice

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

1/2 teaspoon salt 

1. In a bowl, mix together the milk, pumpkin, egg, oil and vinegar. Combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, allspice, cinnamon, ginger and salt in a separate bowl. Stir into the pumpkin mixture just enough to combine.
2. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.

In my next post....More photos coming soon of

the fall leaves this year!

Inside Liberty Place (A Cozy Adirondack Retreat)

 

 Welcome to Liberty Place!

A bright and happy sign

beckons all who come by...

A peek inside the main living area.

Note the lake just beyond the deck!

A bit of a nautical theme

keeps the rooms bright and airy

 

 

And a peek into the cozy retreat

 

of vintage style bedrooms.

Amazing Views

Everywhere you look ... there is an amazing view.

The Adirondack Mountains are so full of grandeur!

I enjoyed catching the reflection in the lake water.

There are lots of fish in Oxbow Lake...

so the sights are not always above the water!

Although there's nothing like a

 relaxing view of the sun setting

Or an after dinner canoe ride...

Perfect together!

Vintage Fun: Thrifting in the Woods

What's not to love about a thrift shop in the woods?

Especially if you're not into fishing... this is a

perfect little shop to get lost in!

It is called "Twigs and Treasures."
People in the surrounding community donate their unwanted household
items. The "Twigs" get them all ready for "sale" in the shop...and then
those who need something for their lake house or cottage can make a
donation for the items.

It is a win win situation all around.

Last year they donated about thirty thousand dollars back to the community for things like
ambulance services and scholarships.

Check it out, right on Route 8 in Lake Pleasant.  You'll be glad you did...if not for the hunt of
vintage goodies...but for the great conversation too!

They're open Tuesday - Saturday during the summer months.
