We enjoyed the Taughannock Falls State Park and Watkins Glen again, spent one full day at the cottage reading, doing puzzles and playing in the water because the weather was so perfect.  When it rained, we went to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology.  Didn't take many pictures, but here's a few.


Taughannock Falls


Puzzles on the porch


Watkins Glen


Start of 800 steps


We came down the Indian trail


Surprised to find a cemetary along the trail
We wandered through it for a bit


Our planned lunch spot was not open 
so we took a pic while we regrouped


Pick your own grapes -- the best we've ever tasted


Took this pic through the windshield


Cindy and Eleanor did some kyaking

Oh, the ambience.  What a delightful spot!
