Pat's sister Dawn and her husband Carl surprised us at 7 am this morning. They drove
part of the way last night from Hew Hampshire after working all day. Dawn couldn't sleep so they left at 5 am this morning to get to us earlier.
Breakfast consisted of pancakes, eggs and sausage for all. Then off we went to visit the Watkins Glen State Park to hike the gorge. We climbed the 800 steps and 1.5 mile trail in about 3 hours. The weather was sunny and cool. We took our time and really enjoyed the Gorge this time seeing some things that we didn't noticed that last time we were here. There were waterfalls, pools and bridges. Below are just a few pictures out of 100s. Dawn also found some little friends along the way. After the hike we were starving so we brought out some meat and cheese that was going to hold us to dinner.
Dinner was fantastic. Dawn made fresh green beans and steelhead trout. We sat around the fire had a few mixed drinks and finally called it a night. We agreed that tomorrow was going to be a rest day depending how we felt. If we decide to go somewhere we will leave at 10 am.
