292/365 - Fall ride



Today Paul and I took a "foliage" ride. We headed west because we thought the foliage would be better than going north. Our destination was the Rip Van Winkle Bridge across the Hudson River in New York. The day was not the greatest with more clouds than sun, but I have a new philosophy on weather, "embrace it rather than fight it."

These were pictures taken on the way there. We discovered this stone arch one day a few years ago on a little dirt road on our way to West Lake to kayak. It intrigues me. It has a stone wall around the back of it. I have no idea what it was.





This stream is across the street from the "stone arch thing". Maybe it was a part of some type of mill.



These are pictures of the bridge. We walked about halfway over it. It was really beautiful there (even without the sun!).





We drove home through Granville and stopped to get some apples.





The sun came out while we were going through Granville and it was absolutely gorgeous!
