Made a quick trip to Vermont to pick up a few things I had forgotten to take to the Thousand Islands with me. Such as my spotting scope, binoculars, photos, music and my cd burner. We had a difficult trip coming across NYS since they closed the Thruway after we were almost to Fulton from Syracuse. The water had started to come over the roadway. We turned back and found the exits all closed until we got all the way back to Herkimer. Then we detoured up over the mts. and finally made it to Rt.20 which was jammed with traffic coming west from Albany. Then I 88 from Binghamton closed. It was a long trip. We go back to Syracuse tomorrow early and then on up to the Thousand Islands once again. It was nice to visit Bearfoot though if even for a couple of days. I am parked in my son's drive in Pawlet.
I will post some pics of the Poker Run we came upon the other day while visiting the library in Clayton, NY to read our email. We spotted the fire boat on the St. Lawrence in the harbor at Clayton so meandered down to watch. Gradually, the rumble of huge engines could be heard and the harbor filled up with giant racing boats. They stayed for awhile, let us look at them and then took off in a huge roar of engines. It was lots of fun and such a beautiful day.
