My Day Trip Through The Adirondacks

I spent an incredible day on the bike today.  Debated doing so, no regrets!  There is always something to do, but few days are as perfect for a ride through the Adirondack Mountains as today was. Left early, road up to Old Forge for a nice breakfast sandwich on the patio of Ozzie’s Coffee Bar.  The name says it all.  Maybe the best coffee in the Adirondacks.

Ozzie's Coffee Bar, Mr Grey enjoys his espresso

Next stop The Donut Shop in Eagle Bay.  They only make two kinds of donuts. Sugared and plain. Always fresh made on the spot.

The ONLY day of the week they are closed is Wednesday. They may as well close the Adirondacks on Wednesdays! 

Continued my ride north.  Took some pictures of Butternut Falls near Long Lake, NY.  Short walk from the road. I prefer hiking much more off the beaten path but this worked out good with my heavy riding gear.

Watched a couple of seaplanes land and take off.

Then on to Long Lake, NY. Just sat by the lake for awhile.  I love the Adirondacks.  It's nice to just sit back and take it in!

I continued North up to Cranberry Lake then back home through Croghan. With some of the side routes I explored, about a 300 mile day.  It's sometimes difficult to get away but always worth it!
