July 27 - Catskills from a distance

When I emerged from the camper this morning all the tenters were wringing out their belongings. The storm that passed over us in the wee hours dumped a lot of water. After only getting to bed at 1am I struggled to rouse the boys for breakfast. We only got on the road at noon. I was sad to leave the area because I knew we had missed so much of what there is to see. I particularly missed seeing the Norman Rockwell museum.
To get through to Ithica, NY we skirted the northern edge of the Catskills. I think it may have been fun to expore there for a few days. Oh well, we are running out of time and still have a few more places on our agenda. We are staying on one of the Finger Lakes and although the campground is quite crowded and noisy I am looking forward to doing some walking and wine tasting with Rich. He arrives tomorrow.
