Falls Colors in Adirondacks.. Bummer
Like we did for the last couple of years, we were so excited to visit Adirondacks to see the fall colors during the Oct 2nd weekend - the weekend when normally the Octoberfest happens in the Whiteface mountain. Couple days before the weekend, the northeast got hammered with rain and wind. I had just spent almost a day travelling from Detroit back to Albany from a business visit, because of the weather delays. You see a connection between the windy weather and fall colors? We didn't quite see that well!! I had invited my friend and his family from NJ. With another friend from around Albany, we all drove together to Lake Placid / Whiteface Mountain area.. Normally, this time would have been a gorgeous drive.. But it was a total bummer with almost barren trees or trees with leaves yet to turn colors... We felt really bad for our friends from NJ as they drove all the way for almost nothing.. Well, the gondola ride at the Whiteface atleast wasn't a bad one. The view was quite pic
