Our last outing of the 2015 teardropping season was to upstate New York where we got to spend some time with family. First was a visit to my brother and his wife in Canastota. We stayed in the teardrop as their guest room was not set up for visitors, which was fine with us as we try to add up those nights in the teardrop.
David & Maryclare's chickens. A friendly bunch. |
We visited an apple farm/winery. Very picturesque! |
David & Maryclare and a whole lotta pumpkins! |
Our next stop was camping with our nephew and his wife near Ithaca at Robert Treman state park. Mark at the gate. |
It was our coldest camp out of the season and probably the coldest to date, as of October 2017. There is a teardrop among all the canopies. |
The colors in upstate New York in autumn are phenomenal! |
Some of the colors along our trail as we hiked |
This tree appeared to be lit from within when the sun hit it! |
Our hike up and back down the river. |
The trail was beautiful and well maintained, |
with long stretches of stairs... |
which proved to be too much for our old Bailey, so Mark carried her. |
The pools and falls all along the river were spectacular! |
The very young and the very old, cuddled up for warmth! |
Near the trail's end, where it loops back down the other side of the river. |
Falls at the swimming area. |
Through a box canyon, just breathtaking! |
The women and dogs waiting for the men to come to the top end of the trail with the car. We just couldn't ask Bailey to go any further. |
Beer stops were mandatory with the nephew & wife. |
We went to Cooperstown and drank beer but didn't see the baseball hall of fame? |
Beer flights. Probably pretty tasty for those that like beer. |
Jasmine & Wander-Inn |
We followed Dan & Athena to their home after camping. The moon was awesome that night. |
Athena & Dan, (and Princess WinterSpringSummerFall) home sweet home. Our last night out before heading home ourselves. |
