2023 Finger Lakes

The Finger Lakes area is absolutely the best place on the planet to enjoy wine tasting. There, I said it. And this little late-October trip was sublime. And get this: there's more to the place than just wine. Too bad I forgot about the other stuff - too busy tasting.

Seneca Lake, home of most of the wineries

Oh, now I remember. We took a wonderful hike in Robert H. Treman State Park (more like Watkins Gen than Watkins Glen), visited Taughannac Falls State Park, and (on the way back) stopped at the National Comedy Center in Jamestown.

Here are some photos of the parks.

Steep stairs but great views at Robert H. Treman

And just the memories are great as well.
