This really is my favorite time of year in the Adirondacks. We’re just past Columbus Day so the bulk of the crowds are gone for the season. Don’t get me wrong, I love tourists! I had the entire Blue Ridge Road to myself with colors which can only be described as sublime. Not another car the whole way until I hit Newcomb.

I’m sure glad I made the drive to attend the event I mentioned in a previous post – Smart Actions for Real Growth. It’s been a too long since I last visited the Adirondack Museum who co-sponsored today’s symposium with Hamilton County Tourism. I always recommend the Museum as a “must-do” Adirondack activity, just go and see for yourselves.
