July 13th, Friday – Overnight Stop, Thousand Islands Winery

Well, we set a new record this morning, we were actually on the road at 8:30 am.  All because we wanted to get to the Antique Boat Museum as early as possible.  So one, two, three the car was hooked up.  Then down to the gas station to fill up which proved to be a wise choice since after this everywhere we looked the price was at least 8 cents more a gallon.  Who would have ever thunk that the little town of Lyon Mountain would have the least expensive gas.

Of course, we had to stop for breakfast.  The fast and quick was McDonald’s which just happened to be on our route.  In no time, tummies full we were back on the road again and heading west.

The route was an easy one, the roads themselves were in great shape.  There was no traffic just the usual silly stuff, slow to 30 mph for a town of 4 houses, then back to 55 mph, then back down to 30 mph and so it went mile after mile.  In due time, though, we reached our destination

They have a grass field off to one side that is reasonably level and there is no one here but ourselves.  Sweet.  Here is another picture of the winery which has of course a wine tasting room that was open to 8 pm.  Want to guess who discovered that!

Here though is the real reason we pushed to get here as quickly as possible.

In the coming days, I’ll be sharing with you our visit to this museum and the boat ride that we took.  It was an awesome experience that made for a wonderful day.

Right now, however, I’m beat and need to get some sleep since we’ll be on the road again tomorrow.  Thankfully, tomorrow will again be a short trip to the campground in Wolcott, NY.  Once again, however, we need to get there as early as possible since we have some errands to run in the area which much be completed before 2 pm in the afternoon.

So for now I’ll bid you goodnight and say thanks for coming along with us again.  Our day was super in every way and we hope yours was as well.  For now a closing thought for each of us to ponder:

As always,  if you are coming to the end of your day with concerns and worries, let me suggest that you turn them over to God.  After all, He is going to be up all night so why not let him handle them for you.

Time now for our evening prayers and eventually some shut-eye.  Till tomorrow.

These are the voyages of  Graybeard and it’s occupants, four paws and two humans.  Our continuing mission: to explore as many new states as possible, to seek out new acquaintances and make new friends, to boldly go where we have not been before
