P-day Birthday adventure - CATSKILL Mtns.




For our adventure this P-day we decided to check out some more of the countryside. We had a beautiful ride up through the Catskill Mountains. It is hard to see the Mountains for all the trees but we did get some glimpses every once in a while. We did find some camp areas. They were called "upper, middle and lower 'Fields'". There is also a "Trailer field". The area was by a creek. No campers to be found, but beautiful camping. No facilities, only a few fire pits. On up the road we happened by a beautiful waterfall. we stopped for a Kodak moment. We made our way to a huge resivoir, but headed down south to Middletown for shopping and dinner. Of course Doug spoiled me, he always does. Ended up with a few things, amongst them a new winter coat and a beautiful outfit. Dinner at Red Lobster is always a treat. The waiter told us that the Crab legs we were eating are from the show "Deadliest Catch". Oh so fresh and yummy. Especially the Lobster, best I have ever had. Texture wise and taste.

Once you hit 30, nobody wants to count the years you've been around until you get past 80, then every year is a miracle. What is really the kicker is when you say that you are almost a half a century old. Now mind you I said "ALMOST". It was a great day spending it with my best friend and true love.
