What's Up(state)?!

Hey guys! So being from New York, obviously, I felt like I should clear a few things up. Number one thing, I do NOT live in New York City. *tear* I wish I did, but don't! I actually live in Upstate New York. Otherwise known as the Finger Lakes region, this area of NY is gorgeous wine country. Although I do not go to these wineries, I love driving along the lake and seeing all the vineyards. The buildings are beautiful, too! Just about any house or building overlooking the lake is beautiful. Last night, my sister and law, Danielle and I went up to Seneca Lake to Watkins Glen. The South tip of the lake has a marina and a dock that you can walk out onto. Every year, they hold the Cardboard Boat Regatta in the marina. It's super cool to see all the ideas people come up with! You can only use cardboard and duck tape, nothing else to build your boat. I've always wanted to compete but never got around to it! Yesterday, Danielle and I just walked around and out on the rocks to enjoy the smell of the water and waves. I love watching all the boats rocking with each wave and seeing all the sailboats swaying in the wind. There's a beautiful and historic sailboat that goes out named, One Love. I've never been one to exactly drool over a boat or anything that isn't designer or One Direction, for that matter, but this boat is beautiful! All wood with the big sails billowing with each breeze. There are gorges all over in this area and I find them incredible. I think it's amazing that something so beautiful was formed without a single touch from man. Of course, that's typically when things are the most breathtaking, when nature haven't been disrupted by mankind. Well I'd best be getting back to bed, its 3:18 a.m. here and I need my sleep. I'll be writing several more posts about the beauties of Upstate New York this week so stay tuned! And PS- I graduate this weekend so don't be surprised if you don't hear from me!! :D
