Monday
morning right after checking out, we found the public library and logged
in to check email. After all it had been three days since last checking?
If memory serves me, I even posted a note on the MB. We then drove
to the business district and toured the shops. At one craft & gift
shop we found some beautiful glassware, Denise inquired as whether there
was a glass shop within driving range, and sure enough one attendant
gave us explicit instructions to the North River Glass Shop. It was just 15
minutes off exit 26 of Rt. 91 South, so it really wasn't that far 'out
of our way.'
This Zebra
baker was about as real as the acrylic martini I'm holding, but they made
great props!
ZOO///M's great shot of a
church we passed by.
Unfortunately they were
not blowing glass that Monday but we did get a look at the
furnace.
Adjacent
to this glass shop was the neatest dam in the river which the locals used
to generate hydro-electric power.
Before
leaving Shelburne, we managed to find one restaurant which wasn't closed
on Mondays for lunch.
(Gads,
she looks naked without stone-guards - see what you've done to us Keith?)
The
remainder of our return to Central New York was pleasant but uneventful,
we did finally give up around 6pm when we stopped to put up the top! The
setting sun made temps drop quickly. Furthermore, lets not get into a
debate on 'top down - windows up' huh? We all know that when the air is
cool, windows up, helps keep the heat in the cabin and the turbulence down for
much more comfortable "top down" cool weather driving.
We made it
back to Syracuse just in time to catch this sunset on the lake. The
following morning I saw Denise off at the Airport for her return flight to
Seattle. Thanks for tagging along ZOO///M, hope you enjoyed it as much as
I?
