I'm up at the farm today as this is published, but these are some photos from last weekend's trip through the Adirondacks on my way to the farm. As you can see in the picture above, the roads through the huge Adirondack Park are 2 lane, old fashioned roads reminiscent of the 1950s. The traffic isn't bad and the scenery is lovely.
Above, Seamus bounces through an Adirondack meadow on one of our "poop and pee stops."
This is John's Brook (I think), near the town of Keene.
Yes, it's June and wild strawberries are beginning to ripen throughout the region.
My little red car full of dogs parked along Route 73. This scene is typical of the Adirondack scenery I drive through on my way to the farm from Albany.
I kept seeing patches of lupines in bloom along the highway. They looked like cultivated lupines, especially because they often were multi-colored, but grew as if they were wild. I looked in my field guide when I got home and learned that garden lupines had become "roadside escapes in New England and mountains." That explains it. And they are indeed stunning.
