NEW YORK ROCKS!

Yes, the thing on the left is not actually a tree, it is my wife mimicking her environment in an attempt to become invisible. We had a great weekend, staying in Plattsburg on Friday night and then at a bed and breakfast in Elizabethtown for Saturday night. We went to Ausable Chasm on Saturday morning and then did a short hike up Baxter mountain in the afternoon. We had dinner in Lake Placid at one of our favorite restaurants, and then grabbed a pint of ice cream and some whoppers to bring back to the inn. Sunday, we had breakfast at the in and drove down to Slingerlands to visit with family. We hung out with relatives and stuffed ourselves with home cooked goodies, and then I slept for half the car ride, while Mary managed to make fantastic time on the throughway. I am a slow driver, but she has pretty heavy boots, so we make better time with her behind the wheel. I tend to want to stop and see stuff, get a soda, go to a yard sale, ya know all the stuff that keeps you from getting to your destination. We love visiting New York, and have high hopes to get back over there to enjoy some climbing in the Adirondacks.
