It wasn't big, but it was quite picturesque, and had beautiful grounds. The view included Cayuga Lake, one of the two largest Finger Lakes. It is close to 40 miles long and up to 3.5 miles wide in places.
There was a lovely pond on site, as well as some small cabins for rent.
The place had gorgeous gardens, at their summer time peak even though the temperatures were quite cool.
Lots of families showed up to listen, dance, drink wine, and enjoy the evening. We brought our own chairs and sat with Dad's friend's family.
They have some working dogs that were to be in a water competition later that weekend. Good looking doggers!
The music of the evening was Zydeco, provided by a local band. Don't ask me how Zydeco got to upstate New York.
The guy that caught my eye all evening was the one playing the washboard. He was dancing and grimacing and really getting into the music all night.
Some of the crowd was dancing. Dad and his friend even took a turn. We didn't know this couple. They were doing a good job, though.
The weather in central New York can be quite fickle. Shortly after this picture was taken the flowers and the crowd got very wet very quickly. Everybody disbanded and drove away.
