A friend told me recently that folks don’t really need selfies as much as they need one beautiful photo of them at their best selves, in their best moment. (I think @thejourneynotes… you may just have found one of yours) // love in the woods of a summercamp @madelinedruce
Welcome back, lake. It’s great to see your glassy face again. (Last year we thought you where a goner when those weeds decided to move in) *God bless the DNR* by @thejourneynotes / great backdrop for the lovely couple (and insanely beautiful bride) this past weekend! #jenwillsayido
At Camp in 1969:Herb & Anna on the beach (Davids parents) // Back then, “the dock” was just a couple of shipping palettes. “swim gear” were repurposed car inner-tubes. And the swim zone bouys where made out of empty milk jugs. Life was simple and they could not have been happier. // His family was one of many who rented a single sleeping room at camp for the summer. (when it was owned by the Latvian Marian Fathers). Families needed very little, and had lots of fun keeping camp running as a true community. They had their priorities straight and this essence is what we try to keep.
SO excited about our partnership with @thehudsoncompany – who supplied some GORGEOUS century-old salvaged wood to create beautiful custom flooring for the #CampSocialHouse #wandawegahillhouse — sharing the full story soon! #sponsored
*regram* from our friends at @AMERICANPICKERS @antiquearchaeology :”It’s never too early to start making plans for next weekend! How does a 1930s cabin in the lake sound? @campwandawega is the place to be.”
*THE AIRBNB REVIEW we didnt expect (kinda hard to hold back the inner fangirl right now) // @camcountry took her tour bus on a detour to come spend some time at camp – and left us with the sweetest feedback : “One of the most magical places on earth – this place will always have a piece of my heart.” //
Kudos to the writers who arent afraid to talk about the reality of big dreams (but low cash). Growing up with hand-me-downs for our school clothes & hitting up yard sales to furnish college (and after) homes…Lack of resources sometimes turns out to be a gift (it helps us figure out how to make something out of nothing) Thanks, @CottageLife for the story on when inspiration meets frugality :”Weve broken our rule of covering only Canadian cottages. But the style secrets here are so good, we couldnt resist. // Feature in Summer 17 issue.
WHAT IS A ‘WORKCATION?’…. (we aren’t entirely sure) but thanks @IncMagazine for including us: #1 on their list for Places Off The Beaten Path To Work and Relax This Summer: Story on today’s profile line: http://tinyurl.com/ya9mhxjz
