You didn't miss Ausable Chasm after all!
3 years ago22 years ago (1999) on a cycling tour around Lake Champlain with 3 friends, we had a great meal at the Butcher's Block outside of Plattsburgh! Cycleblaze entry: https://www.cycleblaze.com/journals/OMBT99/day-4-isle-la-motte-vt-to-plattsburg-ny/
You missed Ausable Chasm, picture in my journal posting. But if it cost $13 to enter in 1999, might have been $100 today!
Fantastic shot, such interesting clouds
3 years agoThanks for the feedback! They came at a cost - four or five mosquito bites that must have come when I stopped for these shots.
3 years agoYour two swamp photos are really beautiful.
3 years agoIt looks like you had quite enough fun for one day. At least the road crew we spoke with were civil and considerate! Where was that Iowa Nice we hear so much about?
3 years agoWe had a similar warm welcome at a Red Roof Inn in Myrtle Beach, SC a couple of years ago after being caught in a fierce, sudden thunderstorm. Congratulations on making it through a challenging day. It makes our gravel detour yesterday look very easy!
3 years agoYes, we thought about this ourselves afterwards. It could have gotten seriously sloppy.
3 years agoHuh. It didn’t occur to us that our weight might have collapsed the bridge. That would have made for an interesting journal entry, alright.
3 years agoGood info. Thanks.
3 years agoGood it didn't start raining here...
3 years agoThat was a daring manoeuvre! I can't imagine how you lifted your bikes over. And how did you know you could trust the bridge? It must have been closed for a good reason.
3 years agoThat big? That's bigger than all three floors of our current townhouse or the four floors of our future one. I suspect real estate values there are quite a bit lower than in Greater Vancouver.
3 years agoYes, you have to have experienced this first hand to really appreciate the unexpected hospitality of sympathetic reception at your accommodations. Your account of squeezing the water out of your gloves rang a bell with us, and helped us remember similar wet rides followed by relief at a warm reception.

I’m glad we got to see it. It was spectacular!
