Some nice scenery on the way and mileage summation


There was nice scenery along the way.  Cameras don't really do a good job of capturing the whole scene but here are some examples. The first was from a previous post and shows the Hudson River in the background.




Shawangunk Ridge, NY.jpg The second shows the Shawangunk Mountains as seen from an overlook west of Hyde Park, NY (as we were on the way to Liberty). I got the picture from the internet but its what we saw I think. I think the image was taken from the overlook just off US 44 as it reaches the crest of a mountain ridge.


The third image is from a rest stop and welcome center a few miles after we  entered PA from NY. 

It was, I think, a new rest stop with large heavy glass doors a stuffed elk in the atrium and some other stuff.

When we got home about 5 pm on August 13, I had driven about 1000 miles over the 5 days. The first day had about 300 miles and the first leg of that day (from Rockville to the museum in Philadelphia) was the longest single leg, about 145 miles.
