June 22 and 23rd, 2025

 June  22:

We found a small church not far from our campground in Cherry Valley.  St. Thomas the Apostle's interior reminded me of the church I attended in Pekin while growing up.  Total attendance at this church last week, according to the bulletin, was 48.  They had an organist and a choir and most of the parishioners sang along.  

On the road we saw a caravan of  over 50 motorcycles, escorted by police front and rear.

This farmer left no stone unturned.  Stone totems were sporadically located throughout the field.

Our campground last night was at the juncture of the Hudson River and Lake Champlain. The Memorial Lighthouse marks the entrance to Lake Champlain.  We had a campsite with no power, but it was not a problem.  We had air-conditioning running off our batteries all night with 30% left. Temps here are crazy for NY.  90s in the daytime and upper 70s at night.   Pictured:  campsite backing up to the Hudson River.

After a short day of travel, we arrived at Moose Brook State Park.  Although we had no reservation, there were several sites available and we were able to choose the one we wanted. Temps in the mid-90s here, but the humidity makes it feel like 103.  Are we back in Florida?
