Yesterday Jack invited Jim and I to take a drive to the Adirondacks to see some Fall color. We headed to the Moose River Recreation Area which is North of Inlet. We used to tent camp here years ago when the kids were little and we were poor.... ( this is a free use camping area owned by the state. There are no facilities here other than an outhouse and a picnic table at MOST campsites. The sites are generally miles apart although there are a few areas with a cluster of sites.). The road in started out to be in surprisingly good condition but soon changed to the " boulders in the middle of the road" that we were used to and we had to zig and zag our way back to the barrier by the road to Indian Lake where Jim and Jack did their first hike while I did some reading. After the hike we ate our picnic lunch and then headed out the Cedar River road and on toward Blue Mt. Lake where they stopped and hiked to the top of Mt. Sawyer. Next we headed back toward Old Forge where they stopped for the final hike to Cathedral In The Pines near 8th lake. There is a Memorial to a WWII Pilot back there. We then headed to Old Forge where we enjoyed dinner at "Randy's" before heading home. We arrived back home about 9pm.
