Day 6 Frankfort to Utica

 This was about mile walk today. We have seen some great walking weather the past few days, but it looks like a bit of rain on Sunday.  All of our walk today was either on the shoulder  of Route 5, or on sidewalks once we got into the city of Utica. On the way to the hotel we walked over the train station  and through alot of downtown  construction.  Utica seems to be in a bit of a comeback. A new hospital downtown along with many upscale condos.  We ate at a great Irish restaurant/pub. We arrived at 5 Points Public House an hour before they opened up. While we were trying  to decide what to do, the manager invited us in,gave us a tour, and served us. Great food. Highly recommend this place to all.

Day 10 Canastota to Weedsport and THE BOSS

Image
 We jumped ahead  here with a ride from my son in law. We were looking to do 10 today but a slight miscalculation on my part led to 13.5m. We had Kathy sister, Karen walk with us today.  Again great weather day. And the trail was mostly  stone dust. We found a nice swing set along the way. And a place to take a break and rest our dogs. More  pictures  from the day. Tomorrow  🌧.  And finally  I leave with a song that we start and end our day with. Check it out we have Bruce Springsteen jamming it out! Erie Canal  HIT THIS LINK.

 Today is the first of 3 days on the bike to our final destination Buffalo. A 33m ride today. With a stop in Brockport for lunch. A big thanks to Tom and Diane for a lift to our starting point on Greece. Trail was all stone dust today and right along the canal. We had lunch  at Barbers and will spend the night at Andrea's and Jesse house, Bill and Shelly's daughter and son in law. Jess is also a pilot, so Kathy and I also enjoy a ride in a plane, very cool.  Enjoy today's pics.
