Stopped in at a great store in Saratoga Springs. Tea and Honey. There is a separate room in the back of the store for a honey bar and free tastings. First time I have seen anything like this – wonder how long it will be before there are some in Maryland.
We actually got to taste some Tupelo honey

Target Rock at Grafton Pond. The guide at Grafton Pond pointed out Target Rock and told us that during World War II someone painted a target on one of the rocks since Grafton was close to Springfield where they manufactured a lot of items for the war but when I went on line to find some more detail it said the rock was used as a marker by a man who lived in the area in the 1940’s and 50’s. He flew airplanes and the rock was like a flight tower, marking a spot close to where he could land his airplane on a grassy runway .

We have been to Grafton numerous times but had never heard of the Grafton Ponds Outdoor Center so had to check it out this visit. It’s 2,000 acres of amazing scenery, trails and grounds. They offer swimming, hiking, mountain biking, and cross country skiing. If you are ever in Grafton it’s well worth a visit.

Don’t think we have ever seen that many dandelions. Had to stop and take a picture and discovered there is actually a trail – will have to check that out another time

Memorial Day Weekend and we headed to Vermont. Wish Vermont was closer than seven hours by car. Spotted this family out for an evening swim.
Another beautiful sunset on the Magothy
