Lake George

No fishing today.

Some would say that for a fisherman that would be a lost day but I got to spend an enjoyable day with Tracy visiting some old familiar places and checking out some new ones.

We started in Clinton NJ and after breakfast headed to North Branch to drive by the old homestead before heading to Lake George.

We lived in the central NJ area for three years and it is still a pretty place as these photos attest.

After the trip down memory lane was complete, we headed north for NY. We stopped for lunch south of Albany and then again for some yarning in Saratoga Springs.

We reached the destination of Lake George whild it was still light and had time to snap a few pictures before supper.

OK Maybe that's stretching it a bit......
