New York in the Fall

We have been enjoying friends and family while in upstate New York. Our friends, Don and Barb, found the Saratoga RV park for us to camp in. They are officially closed, but about five campers are still here. It's really nice, level spots, well laid out, some wooded and some clear spots with lots of space between sites. We visited with Jim's elementary school buddy Tony and his wife Debbie. What fun. They came to our home! Jim also got to see Dan, an old friend from TV8. They had a good evening together while I stayed home receuperating from a cold. (Thanks Bruce!) It has been fun watching the local news stations as our former anchor, sports anchor, and weather man are all on the Albany stations.

On Saturday, Oct. 27 we drove to Jim's hometown, Gloversville to see his brother Bo
b and his wife Karen and daughters Elizabeth and Ann Margaret. Ann Margaret's husband Pete and one of their daughters,Lauren, also came to see us. It is great to catch up and be reminded of how important family is.

Sunday found us deep into the north country, in Hebron, visiting friends, Sandy and Fred. They took us
four-wheeling on their hilly property. Even though it was past peak leaf season, it was still beautiful looking out towards the mountains. We couldn't have asked for a better day.
