278 miles: Camped in Stafford NY.
A nice relaxing day to start the journey. I started by taking a detour and visiting my Uncle Roger Sipher in Cortland, NY. We went out for a quick lunch. Then I wandered north toward Stafford NY (just east of Batavia) were I parked in my Uncle Lester's driveway. For those of you not familiar with my family, my father is the oldest of 3 children and my late mother was the oldest of 12 children. So Roger is my dad's brother and Lester is one of my mom's brothers.
I had forgotten how beautilful the drive into Ithaca on Rt. 13 is. As you go down the hill toward Ithaca, Cayuga Lake is on the right and Ithaca College is on the oposite hill. I took Rt. 96 up out of Ithaca and eventually crossed the ridge and saw Seneca Lake. Eventually hit Geneva and then on to Leroy and Staford.
I appreciate that many of the details I record will be of no interest to you. But it's a good way for me to keep track of the trip. So, all in all, no great earth shattering activities or observations. Some some good times spent with family.
On to East Lansing MI for Friday night.
I love the detail. The small obvervations are the very best part. Thanks for taking me along on your little journey.
