Hillary Country

Vermont transistions in northern New York with flatter terrain and less of a farming bent. The roads we traveled ran right along the St. Lawrence so there were sport fishing actvities and more of a touristy feel. Weather was perfect, roads were smooth,traffic was light and all was right with the world...we don't need no stinking gravel ! Began to notice more and more Harleys along the road. Apparently the were having some sort of rally or meet.As we were zipping along one straight section of road, I noticed a Harley sitting crossways in our lane with it's rider standing in the middle of the road stopping traffic allowing a herd of 50 or 60 Harleys to enter from a side road. Talk about brazen. Any way, that is our new procedure. Beaver stops traffic and me and Smoke pull out. Finally got to Rochester after a fairly long but pleasant day, anticipating a nice shower and a frosty product of the brewers art, but no rooms anywhere. We wind up in Batavia, New York before we find one room with a rollaway (Beavers turn on the rollaway) for $140 per night at an Econolodge...ECONOlodge...jeez! By then I am hungry and tired and I know when I take my helmet, my hair will be a fright...boog
