Day 69

Port Ontario,NY - Boonville,NY (55 miles)

Today we said goodbye to Lake Ontario and the Great Lake region and started our trek toward the Adirondacks.

We have gotten to the point on our trip that we have stopped telling people we plan in getting to Maine in late September. Today when asked, Jeremy told someone we would be in Maine in ten days. Ten days! That's crazy. As of today we have gone 3,835 miles and we have about 422 miles to go. I can't believe we are also done. I can't believe we will be parting from Sara ,once again, in four days. Don't worry, she won't be on her own for long, she will be meeting her dad in Burlington!

But back to the present. Today was a beautiful riding day. Not too chilly, sunny and the landscape was spectacular! We are also back in the hills, so needless to say it was challenging. And the hills are gonna keep coming!

Tonight we are staying at the Brown Barn Campground. The private campgrounds we have stayed at in New York State have been great! And the Brown Barn is at the top! For $6 a person we get to sleep inside, and have full access to flush toilets, hot showers, comfy couches, and a full kitchen! A touring cyclist can't ask for much more.
