This morning we enjoyed our break from the rain by checking out the Kensico Dam which holds back the water supply to NYC (30 billion gallons worth). It is about 20 minutes from our home. We could not go to the top of it because it has been closed since 9/11. The site and parks around it however are beautiful and we had a fun time exploring. (As I've already complained to most of you about, it has rained just about every day this June. I'm trying to stay positive by reminding myself that it's all this rain that keeps NY so beautiful and green.)
