ADK Family Winter Trip 2018

We headed to the ADK this past weekend for what is now our annual winter trip. Going into it, the weather wasn’t looking too favorable with previous weeks of warm weather and no snow, but we got lucky with about 5″ of fresh snow the day after we arrived. Due to tricky travel conditions and […]
