July 4th. Oh man, what a great weekend! Andy invited me to a friend's lake house right by Lake Ontario in upstate NY. There were as many as 16 people there, none of whom I knew until that weekend, and it was a great crowd.
We did roughly four things all weekend:
1. Nothing
2. Ate/Cooked
3. Were on A Boat
4. Drank
Drinking commenced as early as about 9:30am, but averaged at around noon. We played board games, charades, studied for the GRE (this became a drinking game), and just generally had a good time talking and enjoying the scenery.
The temperature rarely broke 70 degrees and the winds probably averaged 15-18 mph which was a little dangerous, boating-wise. Waters were choppy and the lake was COLD. I considered swimming until Lake Ontatio assaulted my poor behind and I realized how chilly it was. I baked and read and had a great time with Andy & co.
