Traveling Tote - The Shenanigans Continue


If you are here for the first time, welcome to Mountain Breaths. Today I am joining a group of talented bloggers to bring you our 18th Tales of the Traveling Tote. 
According to Wikipedia:  The "Tales of the Traveling Tote" is a group of well-preserved, dynamic women that bring a MacKenzie-Childs tote bag on a trip and take pictures of it in front of famous (and infamous) landmarks. 
Believe it or not, I have enjoyed the winter but am now looking forward to spring and getting my garden ready. I hope you'll come back on June 1 to see where I am off to with my new bathing suit. 

As you have already guessed, Joe and I have a winter anniversary so Miss Aurora and her sister have been enjoying winter activities in the mountains. Just when we thought we would like to warm up in Key West in February, we changed our minds and made plans to travel to the Mirror Lake Inn in Lake Placid and spend time with our family and friends at our camp for our anniversary. The groundhog said we will have an early spring, so we have been skiing and snowshoeing as much as possible.
My sister Diane and I love to visit the Old Forge Hardware Store near our camp. And let me tell you, this hardware store has everything you can (and cannot) imagine. I don't think there is any tourist that passes by the hardware store without stopping. It is an icon! They also have beautiful clothing. 
Joe and I have been staying at the Mirror Lake Inn for 20 years, and enjoy their lovely meals. The distinguishing feature of this inn, which has been in business since 1924, is that all 131 rooms have a view of Mirror Lake and the Adirondack Mountains. The sunrise and sunsets are amazing. 
Miss Aurora has fond memories of Key West, and is waiting patiently to return. 

Thoughts and prayers for our fellow toter RJ @ The Sketchy Reader as she is away caring for a family member.
