Day 9: Canton to Lowville
I spent a great evening with John and Cathy, among other things, rethinking my route south from here. Cathy’s cycling friend suggested a route with less traffic that worked out well, even if it was a bit hillier. The weather turned brilliant but still a bit cool, a big improvement over the day before. Rte 24, then Rte 812 traversed open farmland and stunning hardwood forests, and along many rivers and streams. But it was a long day and I was quite exhausted when I reached Lowville. My motel was suitable and I walked downtown (no more riding!) to find dinner. Lowville has seen better days, but the Chinese takeout was good and I found a nice picnic table to enjoy it.
