Nice sleeping at the Country Inn and Suites last night with a GREAT steak dinner at Delmonico\u2019s Steakhouse, which was right next door!!!<\/p>\n

Easy riding out of Rochester this morning and soon, we had the trail all to ourselves . . .<\/p>\n

\"nr7202\"<\/a><\/p>\n

. . . Lock number 34, on the Erie Canal , on the way out of town . . . and at this point I exited the canal trail and got back on a road route that would take me 50 miles to our home for the night, Sodus Point.<\/p>\n

\"nr7203\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There are over 592 miles of canal including the Erie, Champlain, Oswego and the Cayuga\/Seneca.<\/p>\n

\"nr7204\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Outside of Rochester was this BIG playhouse for the new rowhouse\/townhouse development . . .<\/p>\n

\"nr7205\"<\/a><\/p>\n

. . . of which there were only several built. Buy one and get in early!!!!<\/p>\n

\"nr7214\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Fun name . . .<\/p>\n

\"nr7206\"<\/a><\/p>\n

. . . and more fun!!!!<\/p>\n

\"nr7207\"<\/a><\/p>\n

. . . this is probably the best name I have seen on the trip for an Ice Cream store . . . makes sense!!!!<\/p>\n

\"nr7208\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Snaren, you have some competition!!!!<\/p>\n

\"nr7209\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Just outside of Palmyra there was a TERRIBLE accident that had just happened. There was a detour around it for several miles but I was able to jump on the trail for a short ride into Palmyra.<\/p>\n

State Route 31 near Macedon was closed for several hours this morning as State Police investigated an accident involving a car and a semi truck. State Police Spokesman Mark O\u2019Donnell says\u00a0 a car driven by a 30 year old woman crossed into the path of the tractor-trailer.<\/p>\n

The woman was air lifted to Strong by Mercy Flight .\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Her 7 month old baby was restrained in a child seat and was treated at the scene\u00a0 for minor injuries and turned over to family .\u00a0 State Police ask people to call them at 585 398-4100 if they witnessed the crash or it\u2019s aftermath.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

As I put my camera back in my handlebar bag the zipper broke. This is the second time it has broken since I bought it. Last time I had to send it back to Arkel for them to \u2018fix it\u2019.\u00a0 Now . . the same thing happened again. I sent them an email for repair advice and I\u2019ll see what kind of response I get. I cannot zip the top closed.<\/p>\n

\"nr7210\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As I pedaled on, in less than one mile I came upon this bungee on the shoulder of the road . . . a MIRACLE (or at least a temporary fix!!)!!!<\/p>\n

\"nr7211\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We are starting to see lots of historical homes today. Here was a home that that was mortgaged in 1829 \u00a0for $3,000 to print the first version of the ‘Book of Mormon’. Joseph Smith supposedly found the Golden Tablets, that started the Mormon religion, just four miles south of Palmyra!!!<\/p>\n

\"nr7212\"<\/a><\/p>\n

mmmmm . . . might be a while before this sells!!!<\/p>\n

\"nr7213\"<\/a><\/p>\n

. . . here was a project that is sponsored by the State of New York and the Fed\u2019s. Doing the right thing!!!<\/p>\n

\"nr7215\"<\/a><\/p>\n

. . . hey Smoochie, this one is for you!!!!<\/p>\n

\"nr7216\"<\/a><\/p>\n

mmmm . . . not sure what this was about. Located in NoWhere, NY, Not a car or airplane engine in sight!!!!<\/p>\n

\"nr7217\"<\/a><\/p>\n

. . . lots of B&B\u2019s located in this part of New York. This was BEAUTY!!!!<\/p>\n

\"nr7218\"<\/a><\/p>\n

. . . also LOTS of roadside veggie stands. Peaches are in season!!!!<\/p>\n

\"nr7220\"<\/a><\/p>\n

. . . close to Sodus Point we came to this War Veteran\u2019s Cemetery . . .<\/p>\n

\"nr7221\"<\/a><\/p>\n

. . . lots of graves of folks who were born in the early 1800\u2019s . . . very interesting and sobering.<\/p>\n

\"nr7222\"<\/a><\/p>\n

. . . and many veterans.<\/p>\n

\"nr7223\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Once in camp, we met the local scientist, 9 year old Dennis, who let us use his eclipse viewing box . . .<\/p>\n

\"nr7224\"<\/a><\/p>\n

. . . and here was the eclipse, as I saw it. The little sun dot in the lower left that as about 1\/4 covered!!!<\/p>\n
