We did another short hop. We left Cayuga Lake State Park and drove south along the the shore of the lake to Taughannock Falls State Park. The river and the idea of falls intrigued us. We started out taking the South Rim Trail but soon realized that it wasn’t the route we wanted to take. Then we took the Falls Trail. It was great. We had a chance to walk out into the shallow places. We did walk all the way back to the highest falls in the northeastern United States. Wow! We marveled at the beauty and played in the water. Did an afternoon trip to the Bellwether Cidery for a several tastes of hard cider. What a delight! So very much better that other hard ciders we have tried. That night we ventured into Ithaca for dinner at the Ithaca Ale House. After dinner we wandered the downtown area for a while and spent time just sitting in a local park.We know of Ithaca as one of the early hot spots in the 1990’s Swing Revival. Monday night we couldn’t find any of the weekly dances but did stop in a parking lot and danced a couple of phrases just to say we danced in Ithaca.
