Mid-State Trip Day 6 and 7 - Sudbury, Canada to Buffalo, New York to Marietta, Ohio

Didn’t have internet access on day 6 so I will have to give you 2 days today.

Day 6 was Sudbury, Ontario Canada to Niagara Falls and Buffalo, New York. It was a beautiful day. Started out at 57 degrees and ended up at 84. The drive down was great. There were many lakes, streams and rivers. They all looked so clean and pristine. Most of the drive was through Indian territories with many different tribes being represented. We then headed into Toronto to get a picture of Lake Ontario. Got the picture, but Toronto traffic suuuuucked!!!! It took us over 3 hours to get into town, get the picture and get south of town. The construction traffic was terrible. We finally made it down to Niagara Falls and got some great pics. Made it into Tonawanda (North Buffalo) and stayed with some friends, the McCreadies , Thanks Bob and Sandy for your hospitality.

Day 6 Trip mileage - Today 377 - Total 2544

Day 7, we left out friends in Buffalo and headed to the Harley dealership to get some t-shirts. The temperature started out at 70 and reached 80 today. It was cloudy to start, but cleared out by noon. We then headed just south of town to get a picture of Lake Erie…we have now seen all 5 of the great lakes. We then drove south through western New York and Pennsylvania. It was a beautiful drive. The rolling hills of farmland and forests!!! We went through Amish country again and stopped by an Amish furniture store to look at the quality.

We finished the day going through a portion of West Virginia and ended here in Marietta, Ohio.

It is supposed to get down to 59 degrees tonight and reach 86 tomorrow. We will head west towards Indianapolis and visit our distribution facility before turning south and heading to Louisville, Kentucky.

Day 7 Trip mileage - Today 437 - Total 2981

That's it for today.
