Columbus - 8/28 to East Killingly, CT - 9/14/98

We left Columbus on 8/28 and after an overnight stop landed at Allegany Mountain Resort at East Otto NY. Traveled lots around this area including a nearby Amish Community - LOTS of Mountains but so many trees it was very difficult to take pictures. After a week we moved on to Niagara Lazy Lakes Resort near Niagara Falls. Did make to Niagara, both US and Canada. Spectacular Falls. Also toured much of the area - as we try to do everywhere we land.

After Niagara we went to Schroon Lake, near Lake George, NY. Again beautiful scenery - picture of lake George below.
While here we drove to Ft Ticonderoga, NY, where we saw this beautiful little church on the way. It was in a VERY OLD Cemetery.

In Ticonderoga we visited the two forts - Ticonderoga and Defiance - the picture below is from Defiance - looking down at Ticonderoga.


We are at East Killingly, CT, now at Stateline RV Park. On Thursday we drove to Providence, RI, and walked some of that city's historic district, and on Friday we drove to Mystic, CT, and visited Mystic Seaport. We also saw the USCG Academy in New London, CT. Pictures below are from an overlook looking toward Mystic and a lovely chapel/meeting house at the Seaport Museum.




We will be leaving here tomorrow morning, 9/15 to spend several days at Croton-on-Hudson, NY. Plan a bus tour of NYC and a visit to the US Military Academy at West Point.
