our hummingbirds have arrived!
Many cultures have rich folklore about the magical hummingbird. But strangely enough, my favorite legend about the wonderful creature I read each time I see a greeting card made by Papyrus. Have you ever come across it?
<<Legends say that hummingbirds float free of time, carrying our hopes for love, joy and celebration. Hummingbirds open our eyes to the wonder of the world and inspire us to open our hearts to loved ones and friends. Like a hummingbird, we aspire to hover and to savor each moment as it passes, embrace all that life has to offer and to celebrate the joy of everyday. The hummingbird’s delicate grace reminds us that life is rich, beauty is everywhere, every personal connection has meaning and that laughter is life’s sweetest creation.>>
We’re excited to see our hummingbird friends return for the summer season. You can enjoy them from our kitchen window or let them join you in our backyard gazeebo!
cabin fever–planning your summer break?
Are you thinking ahead to a late Spring break? I must be getting cabin fever because I am too! If you’d like to come visit this summer (book early, we get really really busy with graduations and weddings), Skaneateles Lake offers a wealth of water entertainment.
You can take a relaxing boat cruise with Mid-Lakes Navigation or rent a boat or canoe and paddle around the lake. Don’t forget that in the summer, Skaneateles Lake is a wonderful place to swim and cool off.
Enough dreaming– back to shoveling the snow (at least for now)! I hope to see you this summer.
