Cheese To You

Blackberry Inn B&B -- very nice!

On the way home, we visited Watkins Glen.

Watkins Glen gorge -- 800 steps up and then down again

Finger Lakes wine flight as a reward

 Much more impressive though --Meg's shop and her new olive oils and vinegar.

 

Back to Pat's Camp

Much as we like the camp we rented, it was really great to get back to Pat's camp for the last few days of our trip!

 

SOS Race and Reunion

Once again, the Hall/Scruggs Team scored in the Save Our Schoolhouse Race/Walk.

The school reunion was a chance to get together with lots of friends.

Enjoying the lake

Spending many weeks here this year, we had lots of time to enjoy the lake and the opportunities to hike.

 

 

 

 

 

Working on the book project

This was the entrance and guard house when the mine was operating

Pam, James, Russ, and I spent a fascinating day touring the old mines with George Persson.

The pit has filled with water since the mine closed

Visiting Cousin Charlene

We spent a wonderful day with Charlene at the Wild Center in Tupper Lake.

 

Stopped by the Raquette River Brewery on the way home for a growler of ale.
