Sugar Shack




Yesterday was beautiful weather and I worked the boat rental from 1 to 6. Nothing special except that my sunglasses fell into the water and disappeared into the mud. Hopefully I will see them again when the river recedes.

Today we had off and took a ride to a maple sugar shack and restaurant. Only 45 minutes to find out that they're closed on Mondays. We were truly in the middle of nowhere and saw this horse and buggy sign. We had driven around the bottom Lake George and up the edge of NY State where it touches Vermont. We drove on and had lunch at a pizza place before reaching the top of Lake George and passed through the narrow strip that runs between that lake and Lake Champlain. The we headed south along Route 9N (don't ask) towards Lake George. The water photo is the gorgeous lake taken from Bolton Landing. We stopped there for a stroll and some chatchka shopping. Also enjoyed some Ben & Jerry's ice cream.

Back at the campground it was quiet as most of the weekend guests had left. I walked Ziggy and went for a bike ride where I spotted several goose families. It's going to be freezing tonight so we brought in the plants, had dinner and watched TV.
