ADIRONDACKS
Lake George retreat | So here's the first of the Adirondak campground pictures | Took way too many of the site itself and not enough of other things, though filled two digital chips and had someone burn a disk to get me more room |
It was a "car campground" | You know, electrictiy, running water on-site, laundry and showers down the road | And under capacity, in between Memorial Day weekened and Americade, Lake George's annual biker fest | I took one spot in the midst of several and no one else pitched tent nearby, which was fine by me | Got some painting in as well as some of my own road trips |
Also got to take two trips up to 13th Lake, a wilderness camping site where you haul in your gear and pitch your camp in designated spots | Got to use the "slow camera" and did a panoramic watercolor (in two parts) | The black flies were not that bad, especially when away from the lake itself | But both campsites that I'd have wanted were already taken when I arrived | Luckily, I hadn't taken down the other site so all was well in that department |
