Finger Lakes Excursion

Tuesday August 23, 2005

Got an early start to the Finger Lakes today with Dad, Ann, Sue and Debbie.

Dad rented a van so we all had plenty of leg room. It was about a 2 1/2 hour drive to Hammondsport,NY on Kueka Lake. The ladies went shopping, Dad made calls to his office and I took pictures around town and off the Lake.

Then we went to the Bully Hill winery where we had a nice lunch. Susan and I both had veggie burgers and Sue, the successful sibling in the family picked up the tab. Then the ladies tasted samples of the wine while Dad & I toured the museum.

Next we went to the Rooster Hill winery where the ladies did more wine tasting. I think this trip was planned before they knew I wasn't tasting wine or any other alcoholic beverages for 434 days but I was just along for the ride. After dinner in Dad's college town of Geneva, NY, where he told us of some of his pranks at Hobart, it was a long drive home as we pulled back in the driveway 14 hours after we left.

With no run today and not quite the proper diet my blood sugar was up to 194 before bedtime and that's kinda high. Traveling will do that to you.
