We're making good progress cycling back from Niagara Falls to NYC, and are now in Syracuse. Our route took us through beautiful farm country, including on a dirt road curiously called "Turnpike Road." We passed several Amish families in horse and buggy:
The weather has been pleasant, and we enjoyed this sunset while in Weedsport, NY:
Sho made time to teach some soccer tricks to a little boy he met at a local swimming pool. Sho let the child score lots of goals on him, and when it was time to go, the boy didn't want to say goodbye.
Here's a pic of Sho, as we stopped to document roadkill:
Today's ride into Syracuse was hilly, and I was exhausted by the effort. Near the end, I discovered that Saya had been collecting rocks and storing them in the rear panniers:
I asked Saya to throw them out, but she teared up and pleaded not to get rid of her "special baby rocks." I suggested that she start collecting special baby feathers instead, but she looked up at me with big puppy dog eyes, and I gave in. I guess I'll be pulling a few more pounds the rest of the trip...
