Timberline cafe

The next day on the way to Jabe Pond, we stopped at the Timberline Cafe in Speculator. They had the most amazing breakfast foods. Terry and I split French toast and a cheesy egg sandwich plus a salad with Paul. Terry got a second sandwich plus Paul got a huge mocha. The waitress thought we were insane for eating so much.

Comfort Point campground

The first day we were a little late (of course) so we stopped at Comfort Point campground on Lake Pleasant. It was beautiful and very family oriented. We went for a night canoe.

The best part is that even out there they had recycling. I'm looking at you, Brushwood.

Unterwegs

We're on the way to the Adirondacks. We left about 2pm which is amazing for us. We rented a Suburban which is appropriate because its like a tank from Clarence. We also managed to somehow almost fill it.

I just found out Letchworth is only 300 feet deep and the Grand Canyon is a mile deep. I always thought Letchworth was deeper than that but now it makes me wonder how they call it the grand Canyon of the east?

Family picnic

After swimming in the redonkulous pool, we had a picnic with my family. It was a good day - we had a cookout, played frisbee, and romped on the playground with midnight. The family camped over, but we had had some smores before we headed home. It just makes me more pumped to go to Adirondacks in a few days.

The Letchworth pool

The pool at Letchworth is amazing. I've been there a bunch of times with my family - my dad used to go all the time growing up.

The pool is olympic size at least, plus a diving area. The water wasn't even chlorinated. A mini-(e:terry) got us to do flips, because we were too scared. And I managed to swim across the pool in one breath, after trying forever.

Like everything else in state parks, the poolhouse and pool were super 60's. It had to have been built for thousands of people - is it because there used to be more families? The style is actually neat.

Like father, like son

The tortoise and (e:Paul) needed to sun themselves today. The only difference was one was covered in poop and flies. Guess who.

500000 presses

The keyboard attached to the dock at work tracks your keypresses. This week I hit 500000. I want to get it to rollover at a million before I have to move.
