Friday we drove to Buffalo. Sunday we returned. It's over 400 miles!
The reason for the trip was to return granddaughter home. She returned with the NH family from the family vacation at Oneida Lake to spend a week with cousins and two nights with us. It was time for her to return home to start "school" (Daycare) again so her parents can have uninterrupted work at home. Today is her first day!
I'm impressed with NY State! Mask wearing is the law and just about everyone we've seen in very public inside spaces complies. At the parks, in open space, not so much, but that's okay.
Our return trip from Buffalo was by the long way. We skirted the Adirondacks and drove along the St. Lawrence River in upstate NY. Then crossed Lake Champlain into VT and then south east to NH and Lebanon. It was a long day. I was expecting better sights along the river than we had. The prettiest section was through VT.
Here are the few photos I took. You'll laugh!
The park we visited Saturday to view the falls. Not much water going over this falls. It's in the town of Akron where the hexagonal house is. (We drove by the house, Tom, but took no photos.)

...I've lived in New York State almost my entire life, Andrew Cuomo our governor has his act together, unlike #45.
Looks like a successful road trip all around, Marcia, with family and also seeing some nice sights and great donutes too. I have also never seen a flag like the one shown, but it is a nice tribute even if the Canadian border remains closed now. Thanks for the anniversary well wishes too!
They (flag people) probably got a lot of business from Canada in pre-C times.
Interesting masks. I take it you have been busy producing a few of those. Children under 11 don't have to wear them here. Sounds you made the best of the long journey viewing all those sights.
How wonderful, to take a trip! Speaking of masks, we had to have a plumber here this week. We were really impressed with the company as they called to tell us that their employees’ temperatures are checked when they get to work each morning and that our plumber would be wearing a mask. He was — and the mask was a photograph of the lower half of his face!
It sounds like you are really enjoying life in your new place.
