Still Traveling through the Adirondacks - A New Route

Returning from the farm to Albany, the roads were bordered nearly the whole distance with brightly colored trees. It is thrilling to see the colors and enjoy the autumnal aromas, but less than thrilling to think of winter's cold and snow which will arrive all too soon:
