In which it is the beginning of the end ...
As we leave Ithaca, Cousin Lynn waves us off from a dock on the east shore, and captures us heading back north - toward the end of our trip.
The lake was calm and cloudy, this time around - with the occasional rain shower. The days a chilly now, and we are finally wearing long pants and jackets. (hoorya!). After traveling back up the length of Cayuga (Cooga, the locals inexplicably say) Lake we had intended to spend the night tied up at the CS-1 lock, but we arrived at the lock early in the day so we decided to push on to our old friend, Baldwinsville.
There still isn't much tree color - but we try to appreciate what there is. Mostly it's just a long boring day. |
We tied up on the free wall just before 5 pm, making this one of our longest cruising days ever. We will stay here tomorrow to do laundry and get started on preparing the boat for winter storage. Now that we are almost done, it turns out we are ready to be done!
In order to stretch our legs we got off the boat and walked over to the post office to mail some postcards, and then stopped by Olive's Eatery to pick up dinner.
Olive's is adorable - and fully ready for Halloween! |
We watched an episode of Ted Lazzo (we are in love with this show!) and watched a dramatic cloud display on nature's TV. Especially well thought out was the way the single ray of sun illuminated the white church spire.
