Our Last Weekend in New York

That weather forecast mentioned in our last post has been accurate.  Saturday was cooler and cloudy so we took the car to Corning and spent the day indoors – in the museum of Corning Glass.  The place was packed.  There were tourists from all over the world.  It was an entertaining and educational visit for us.  We saw a glass-breaking demonstration (how different glass breaks, ie safety glass for cars, etc.), learned about fiber optics, and watched vases being created by a glass blower. 
We recommend this tourist stop to anyone coming through this area.

 

We recognised the work of Dale Chihuly from across the room:

 

Sunday started out even cooler.  (I can’t say “cold” since we looked up the weather back home in Minnesota.)  After a local church service here in Campbell, where we were the only strangers, we visited a couple of vineyards/wineries back in the Finger Lakes.  Bully Hill is highly recommended for being low-key and fun – and they have good wine!  They also have a great restaurant which we tried out – yummy!

Here is some more Finger Lakes scenery.  Just imagine if the sun had been out.

In some places, it is like being in a jigsaw puzzle (with all those colors).
