Friday, July 26, 2024 - The "Original Plan" was to drive up through The Adirondacks, over through Vermont and New Hampshire, and then home (350 miles, 6 hours 44 minutes):
But I looked out the window and realized that I-90 IS LESS THAN 1/3 of a mile away:
So then I thought:
1) Wendy actually got home from her Retreat yesterday, and
2) My original plan got me on 128 late-afternoon - if I just went straight on I-90, I would hit 128 around 1, meaning Home around 2. On a Friday-in-July, I like Plan 2 much better:
Pretty Nice driving through New York State:
But I ran into an "interesting situation" just west of Poland, New York (having actually been in "WEST CANADA" only 2 weeks ago):
Some pretty views on West Canada Creek:
I hit The State Line at 10:39
Ha - I bet they think they're on a "Road Trip" (now Dennis, you behave):
12:45 - I KNOW THIS ROAD!!!:
White Beach (and The Atlantic Ocean) at 2 PM. 311 miles today; 14,094 miles for the Whole Trip (Trip Counter B "rolls over" above 9999.9 miles). Thank you God for these wonderful "Road Trip" adventures!
