We travelled 68 miles from Oswego to Watertown, NY. It was a
beautiful sunny day right from the start with comfortable
temperatures and a hint of a tailwind. Yes, there were hills but
not the steep ones of yesterday, more rollers.

We rode on NY Route 3 part of the Seaway Trail which runs over 500
miles from Messena, NY, along Lake Ontario and Lake Erie to the
Pennsylvania/Ohio border. It is a road, not a real trail, but has
smooth wide shoulders and light traffic. Historic markers along the
way taught us about the War of 1812. Upstate New York is beautiful
farmland interspersed with small towns. We visited Sacket's Harbor,
founded in 1801 and site of a U.S. fort which was successful in
keeping those "hordes" from the North from invading.

Our lunch stop was in Henderson at Alexander's Corner where we sat
under a hot pink canopy at picnic benches and ate huge submarine
sandwiches. Perhaps you'd be interested in what else I ate today:
A waffle slathered in butter and syrup, donut, juice, Gatorade,
Twinkies, candy bar, banana and chips...and I've lost 10 pounds on
this trip. And guess what!? I'm starving! I'm off to get dinner.
