Chapter Five, Winthrop, New York

I was touring Winthrop and driving the road which ran along the St. Regis River, which you can see behind this lovely home:

And behind this one also:

This red and white home (with its color coordinated water pump) was also positioned on the shores of the St. Regis River:

I passed by all sorts, sizes and shapes of homes, this one with a wood stove chimney running from out of the front wall:

A very nice, well kept home:

And a home with a beautiful birch tree out front:

I passed by what seemed to be a motorcycle repair shop:

And the Brasher Falls-Winthrop Volunteer Fire Department:

Another lovely home:

And the Tri-Town Community Center, which appeared to be an arena for local sports teams. I was sure that Brasher Falls and Winthrop were two of the communities, but never did find out what the third community was. Though they are side by side on the shores of the St. Regis River, Brasher Falls is in the town of Brasher, and Winthrop is in the town of Stockholm. Though I'm close to both of them, I'm in yet another town. Hey, maybe that's what they meant by "Tri-Town." I checked the Internet, but found no answer:

I turned around at the Leroux Oil Company, figuring I was, at that point, leaving Winthrop and passing into Brasher Falls. But I still had to drive back through Winthrop, so there will be one more post, Chapter Six, tomorrow:
