Tuesday, April 18, 2017: Day One of Finger Lakes Trip

I picked Mary Ann up at 8:40 a.m and we headed out.  We hopped on the thruway and got off just past Geneva and then got on 20 (stopped in Waterloo to take pictures of a great ghost sign)

and then
drove down the west side of Cayuga Lake.

We went to Taughanack Falls State Park and had picnic lunch and then walked the
trail to the fall.  It is an easy trail and there were a lot of people using it today. 

then to Buttermilk Falls State Park.  The falls is at the entrance to the park, so hiking is not necessary.

only stayed  a few minutes. 

then drove to  Newfield to see a covered bridge,

and then to Montour Falls to see the falls

and looked for two geocaches (found one). 

then to wWatkins Glen to our lodging (a cabin at SENECA LODGE)

then looked for a restaurant, finally settling for __Curly's____  Family Restaurant.  I had eggplant parmesan and it was OK.....their was way  too much sauce and it was very thick. 

It was a long day, but good since we saw a LOT!
