One of the places that we're looking at moving after Thayne's done with his residency is Watertown, NY. We've visited a couple times and have really enjoyed our time there. If only it was a little closer to a temple, family, and an airport. There are some definite perks if we move there. One of which is Thayne's boss is a good friend that we trust and know that he would treat us well. We'll probably be making the big decision in the next couple of months but until then enjoy the pictures. Most of these pictures are from the 1000 island area of NY. Andrew's parents (Andrew is our friend and potential employer) live on the waterfront on one of the islands. We've stayed with them when we've visited in the past. Right out the window of their house is Boldt Castle on Heart Island. It is a stunning view.

These next pictures are all from Boldt Castle. George Boldt, general manager of the Waldorf-Astoria hotel in NYC, made the castle for his wife. She passed away right before it was finished and the castle is now open to tourists. Each year restorations and improvements are made to make it the grand building that George Boldt wanted it to be.

| This is the lady the castle was built for. I think they had a different idea of beauty back then. |
