Auburn, New York

This weekend we're in Auburn, NY. It's a small town of about 28,000 people situated on the northern tip of one of the Finger Lakes known as Lake Cayuga. We had planned to day in the picturesque town of Skaneateles but our plans were a little last minute so most inns there were booked for the weekend.

A couple famous notables who hail from here are Wilard Bundy, the inventor of the Time Clock (i.e. Punch Clock), and John Walsh from the America's Most Wanted TV show. There's a pretty big and somewhat infamous federal prison here as well. The the Inn where we are staying is quite comfy and clean so there's nothing to complain about. Believe it or not, there is aTim Horton's here as well!

It's been mostly rain here so hopefully the next couple of days will be decent so we can tour some of the gorges and waterfalls. We're also making a special trip to Albany to visit and deliver some goodies to a niece who is starting college.
