Camping- August 21

Camping!!!!

It's been since our trip to Newfoundland-Labrador that we have been camping.   Dusting off the gear, checking all the batteries, replaced one of our Byer cots and a new EZ up secured, we're off to the Finger Lakes, to the Finger Lakes Campground.

We thought we'd try the Sagan Planet Walk in downtown Ithaca;  this would be our second scale model of the Solar System adding to the spectacular one along US-1 from Presque Isle to Holton Maine.   This was a walking path that seemed to snake it's way around several city blocks before running along one of the many gorges in town.







Saturn is located in a construction site for now.


It was a bit of a let down.  Cool definitely but a let down and we give a 4 on a ten point scale.    Lunch was entertained at Kelly's Dockside along a major inlet into the lake.  A fellow a few tables over sketched this of our two doggies.

Last night in camp was very buggy, but the dew was light overnight.  We packed up, headed home into the remnants of Hurricane Ida.
