Had a great meal, caught up with each other, spoke about our past adventures and planned for next year. The full moon was hidden by clouds but nonetheless we had good views of Squam Lake. We returned back to the house for some dessert, soaked in the hot tub and chatted by the fireplace. 

Happy Holidays!
