All B&B Reservations Have Been Made

Comstock covered bridge in East Hampton. Unfortunately it had to be repaired and reinforced so it was done in the most unsightly way possible.

Resting our weary bones
Take a look at the web site links for the four bed and breakfasts Kathy and I will be staying at on our Erie Canal bike ride. The final reservation for Angels Nest was made on April 19th.

Hambleton House in Lockport
Victorian in Brockport
Canaltown in Palmyra (no picture, just description)
Angels Nest in Rome (perhaps the most interesting – used to be a convent)

In addition, we will be staying in four motels along the way, and, in Little Falls, NY, we will have the comfort and pleasure of staying with friends. That in itself is a story of co-incidence (if you believe in such a thing). Lets call it a story of synchronicity—to be told some other time.

My biggest concern was getting the B&B reservations settled. These don’t have that many rooms each and fill up fast; especially at the time of year Kathy and I are traveling—early September. I was having a problem connecting with Mary Davis at Angels Nest. I knew she had put us down for our stay, but the reservation had not officially been made. She would call me and leave a message; then I would call her and...leave a message. On the 19th, as I was sitting here at my computer, I looked at the clock and saw it was 8:30 a.m. The thought struck me that if I called Angels Nest right now, I would get Mary. I was right on the money. We talked. The reservation was confirmed. We talked some more. Now I can relax relative to bed and breakfast reservations.
