We are camped at Lake Eaton, a public NYDEC campground near Long Lake, in the heart of the Adirondacks. Today we visited the Adirondack Museum at Blue Mountain Lake. We were there 7 hours and did not see half of the exhibits. Our admission is good for a second day, so we are going back there again tomorrow. One reason we moved so slowly was I got bogged down looking at all the old canoes and Adirondack guide boats. Recreational canoeing here goes back to at least the 1870s. Canoe heaven.
The weather has been exceptionally pleasant, with daytime highs in the 70s and evening lows in the 40s. The campground here is nearly deserted; we will stay on this site until Sunday, so we won't have to fight the weekend crowds (if any) for a new campsite. We have scavenged enough abandoned firewood from the campground to make fires every night for a month.
