October 3, 2013 Our friends were off to work before we even got up, so we had a cup of coffee at their house in Walpole, NH, said goodbye to the giant great dane, and headed west. We took lots of scenic roads today and once again crossed the river into Vermont and then into New York. We think New York is every bit as gorgeous as Vermont and New Hampshire this time of year. Our highlight today was the Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum at Cooperstown, NY. We spent almost three hours there, and could have spent three days. It's a lot of fun, full of interesting memorabilia and information detailing the history of baseball. I'm not a big sports' fan and I still enjoyed it a lot.

Well, we are a couple of days behind in our reporting, and we apologize, but there is just no time to sleep let alone write our blog. We left our hotel at 7:30 a.m. and began our long (5 hour) drive to Cooperstown. By now most everyone is sleeping on the bus! Our traveling to upstate New York went well, although the bus seemed to be having a little trouble going uphill. The drive through the countryside was beautiful. We are so glad to see this part of the country. About an hour before we arrived it began to rain, but as usual by the time we were ready to go outside it was a beautiful day.

Saturday September 1, 2007. The last day!! Breakfast with Maxanne and then we head for home. No actually we have one more place to visit the Baseball Hall of Fame, Cooperstown NY. Labor Day Weekend the place is crowded as expected. (this is another place to visit during the week and after school opens) It was worth the price of admission. We took in the exhibits but didn't linger. They really should put together an audio tour. It was about 3pm when we left and decided to find a place to eat so we didn't have to eat fast food on the highway. The GPS led us to a little restaurant on Lake Ostego just a couple of blocks from downtown. Good food a great view. Now we really are headed home. ... read more
