Good evening from Lake Placid, NY - home of the 1932 and 1980 Winter Olympics! I spent the day following Becky around. Why you ask? Well, going to the Baseball Hall of Fame has been on her bucket list for a long, long time and I told her to take as much time there this morning as she wanted. I let her set the pace through all the exhibits, read as much of the info that she wanted to, snap a hundred or so photos, and just enjoy herself! Sounds pretty sisterly of me, don't ya think? |
We had lunch there that included our choice of pie and I picked caramel-nut apple and that eased the pain in my toe a bit. The line was probably 40-deep to see the old apple press, so we headed out after we finished eating.
I did some toe-doctoring in the car and to make me feel better, Becky let me stop at the ACE hardware so I could buy a Yeti travel mug. It helped.
We certainly enjoyed walking around the complex that included buildings and barns that had been moved and reconstructed here from all over upstate NY. It was a beautiful afternoon and well worth the detour, especially since I got to photograph and ride the Empire State Carousel.
Tomorrow Becky gets to follow ME around since Lake Placid has been on my bucket list for a long, long time! We will not have the quiet night we had last evening because this town is rocking. As soon as I zip this Postcard off to you, I'm going to do some toe doctoring, and then hit the sack for some reading. Nite, nite all... |
