We left Sacandaga this morning with some angst about finding a campsite this holiday weekend with out reservations. Last night the rangers who had checked us in told us to come back to the rangers station in the morning and they would help us get a reservation at one of the sites further north in the Adirondack Park such as Lewey Lake but the ranger we talked to this morning was not so accommodating. She did give us directions to three campgrounds on Old Piseco Road and suggested that Point Comfort might be the best choice. So off we went. We pulled into Point Comfort around noon and scored Site #3 on the lake side. Beautiful view from our camper window! Only downside was that just after we arrived our across road neighbors began arriving. Several families, all with children, all friends of one another together for a great group campout. They were really enjoying their gathering but the noise level interfered with our enjoyment of a wonderful little spot on the lake. Late in the day we walked to the beach to watch the sunset and the oncoming night. We were grateful for the rain that started at eleven that night. Suddenly the laughter and conversation as the party broke up and all sought the shelter of their tents. Ah! The wonderful quiet!

    Hope you’re planning on visiting the Adirondack Museum not too far from Blue Mountain Lake, as long as you’re up that far north! Wonderful place, and then the Wild Center in Tupper Lake. If you’re going further north again, you’re not too far from Cranberry Lake and Star Lake, where Pete’s brother lives. Great time of year to be up there! Enjoy!!

Imperial War Museum

Imperial War Museum

London’s Imperial War Museum in Southwark founded even as the First World War raged offers insights into the myriad costs of the wars of the 20th and 21st Centuries. It was a most disquieting but valuable reminder of the myriad costs of war.

London’s Canals

London’s Canals

The two of us have long been fascinated with the history of canals and their role in the history of transportation, industrialization, and more recently recreation. This stay in London has given us new opportunities to explore and learn more about how canals contributed to the growth of this great city and how they are being used and preserved today.

National Portrait Gallery

National Portrait Gallery

It was a most educational visit to the newly renovated National Portrait Gallery at Trafalgar Square in Central London. We were intrigued with the contemporary approach to presenting British History.
