Weekend in the Berkshires

Lisa & I got to visit the Berkshires this weekend, to see Dan & Tobi, Karl & Kelley, and Kevin R. After working Friday, we drove out (Lisa driving through torrential rain and some pretty wicked lightning around Albany). We all stayed up past our bedtimes Friday, then Saturday morning brought some more rain. Not to be deterred, we waited for the clouds to clear, played some horseshoes, then Lisa & Dan & Tobi went swimming (with Kelley getting the photographic goods) while Karl & Kevin & hiked a couple miles of the Appalachian Trail nearby. The trail was kept very nicely, the weather had cleared up for us, and we summited Becket Mountain before we turned around. We all then had some dinner, stayed up past our bedtimes again, then by noon or so yesterday, Lisa & I were on our way back.

We stopped around Albany to visit a friend of Lisa's and his wife, and their cute dog. We then made our way back, where we collapsed after a whirlwind weekend of fun.
