Rainy morning but it cleared up in the afternoon. Went to downtown Saratoga to walk and get some exercise and to stop at yarn store and bookstore
Then we headed back to the park. Some of the leaves have come down but still found some things to take photos of. Even found some red leaves
A broken heart?

A beautiful fall day. It was a chilly 53 degrees this morning. We had to put on our heavy coats
We headed to Saratoga State Park The entrance looks looks beautiful
Park is beautiful. There are lots of trails and picnic areas
Then we headed to Hadley Bridge
Not sure what this bridge is
Then we rode along side of Lake Sacandaga on our way to Lake George. View of Lake George from one of the pull offs. We drove to the top but it was really crowded with no place to park
Then we stopped at Lake Moreau State Park. Water was a lot lower than we were last there

First day of vacation. We made it to New York. Traffic wasn’t too bad.
Made it to Saratoga. The hotel now has free dinner on Wednesday nights. Great idea. They had to install gates to parking area since they were getting overflow parking from SPAC and the brewery next door
Walked around the parking lot to get some exercise and spotted this tree. I think it’s same tree I took a picture of years ago

Headed to Saratoga Springs and luckily did not hit any rain. Stopped three times but still made it in a little over 6 hours. Leaves are dill and it’s past peak but I did find some color around hotel parking lot

A trip to Saratoga would not be complete without at lease one picture of a horse. This horse is outside the visitors center.
Saratoga is only about an hour from the B&B where we stay in Vermont. We were really surprised at the number of shops and restaurants. We had hoped to go to a winery but no luck. One of the wineries in town was closed, another one had not opened yet.
Tried to find one on the outskirts of town but address we put in GPS did not work and all we saw was an open field. We tried one more time in Port Edward but that one was closed and for sale. Oh well.
We still had a great day

Saratoga has long been known for its glorification of horses, but another popular part of Saratoga culture is dance. The city plays host to the annual Dance Flurry Festival, along with elaborate galas, the National Museum of Dance and the New York City Ballet summer season
The National Museum of Dance selected 24 artists for a project called Saratoga En Pointe! Each artist decorated a five-foot tall fiberglass ballet shoe sculpture. These fiberglass ballet shoes are displayed throughout the City of Saratoga at select locations
