Had no idea you had such connections ... Sandy, Wow! Had no idea you had such connections to NY. I have walked the Watkins Glen trail but couldn't do it anymore because of my bad ankle. It was difficult when I did it (and I walked down all those steps) and I could barely walk for several days. I also suffer from thyroid disease which is nicely controlled now. We always take our infrequent visitors to Rochester to the Falls. CMOG is incredible now as they have closed the Steuben factory and greatly expanded the exhibit space with much contemporary art glass. I can't stand the snow anymore and am happy to be south in the winters even though we occasionally get a few snowflakes but that is all. Last Feb the avg temp in Rochester was 10.2 degrees and it only got above 32 for 6 hours -- I am much too old for that!!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01510120813220199735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-916682346234515921.post-48674947842701632312015-08-25T16:38:13.035-04:002015-08-25T16:38:13.035-04:00I remember going to Corning Glass Museum when I wa...I remember going to Corning Glass Museum when I was 25 for a birthday treat. Sounds like it would be great to see again, 30 years later.<br /><br />I also walked Watkins Glen trail...just a month or so before they worked out why I was not so well. I had a thyroid condition! No wonder someone asked me if I was alright when I was slowly climbing the stairs on the other end. ;-)<br /><br />I used to live in Salamanca, NY and then Delevan, NY. I took my sister to Niagara Falls when she lived in Detroit. I drove across between NY and Mich through Canada to collect her. Then we went to Maine for Thanksgiving. On the way back, there was a snowstorm which brought 12 feet in 24 hours. and we were blown off into the median strip by an RV. With Lake effect snow, there was always more snow in W. NY than in Maine!<br />I did take my husband and son to Niagara one time when we were in America.<br />Sandy in the UKSandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04978514536651961190noreply@blogger.com
