Adirondacks


We left on our mini-vacation Thursday evening. We spent the first night in East Stroudsburg, PA. Friday morning we stopped at Bushkill Falls and hiked to the main falls. We spent about 2 hours there before heading on toward our destination.


Our destination was Coyote Ridge Ranch at Port Henry, New York. Two single ladies who built the log home they live in in 1992, had invited us for an all-expenses paid vacation in the Adirondacks. We arrived Friday afternoon and stayed with them until Sunday afternoon.


One of our points of interest was Ausable Chasm. We spent several hours there walking along the chasm and marveling at the sights. We also stopped at two book sales and the hospital in Plattsburg where both the ladies work. We then rode the ferry from Port Kent, New York to Vermont on the other side of Lake Champlain and stopped at Goodies for soft ice cream.


It was an interesting weekend and a good place for a mini-vacation. We are grateful to the ladies for paying our way to visit them and hosting us through the weekend.
