Smith Park Campground Hector, NY
Another nice morning for a walk.
We stopped at a community park in Wellsbor for our breakfast.
We left Pennsylvania and traveled a short distance into New York. We passed through Corning and Watkins Glen on our way to the campground.
We had a prolonged quiet time this afternoon. Then, at 4pm, we started looking for something to do. I found a farmers market with live music that was in the town of Trumansburg.
The music was great.
We found lots of fun treats to bring home. We bought rainbow-colored eggs from free range chickens.
We got some raw milk cheese that is a blend of parmesan and Swiss. We haven’t been eating cheese at all…this is a rare treat! We chose fresh apricots…we have never had them fresh. And, blueberries that are sweet and delicious and taste like real blueberries. And, we had to get bread because Tim said it was the prettiest bread he had ever seen. I chose a sourdough, wheat, pecan, and raisin bread. We haven’t had bread in months…if you are going to eat bread, this is the kind to get…fresh and real and worthy!! As you can see, we tasted it before we even got a picture! Oh…and purslane…which is a sweet and crunchy nutritional green…looks like weeds and tastes like weeds…but we are going to eat it!
We had food from a BBQ truck. We selected as healthfully as we could. We ate with two women who summer here every year. They told us that when we needed to go and see Taughannock Falls.
We took a short hike along the rim.
It was a very nice evening. There is nothing that we like better than being in a new place, trying new things!
Sounds like you are having a great time and eating healthy; that’s a great thing and something that Charlie and I should be doing, Lord knows!!! Please tell me about the blue tennis shoes you are wearing; they look like comfort!! Stay safe!
From sunny, hot 🥵 FL
Marcia,
I love my New Balance 940 shoes. We are walking and hiking so much that it is important for me to have great shoes. I have had these for the past 3 years and order new ones every 6 months or so! Try them…you won’t be disappointed!
We have decided to take better care of ourselves…and we are really doing it. It is terribly hard but we feel better and we know it is good for us!
Sorry it is so hot there…next time…go north in the summer!
