14. Day 5
Batavia, NY to Johnson, VT - 410 miles
The fall colors through upstate NY and into VT are exactly like the screen savers, but better in person. With rivers and waterfalls everywhere, its hard to keep both eyes on the road.
Settled into my site now, tucked away at the bottom of the campground where I can hear a river running by, too cold to sleep with the door open but nice with an evening beer. Got to see Nat for a couple minutes when I dropped some stuff off with her, but due to covid rules I'm not allowed into the campus, so the tour will have to wait until another time.
Walmart parking lot camping worked out just fine. It poured all night long which may have helped me sleep. The rain let up around 5am so I made breakfast and was on the road by 6. Having been to NYC a few times before I did not have high expectations for the rest of the state, so the drive today was eye opening - definitely a book by the covers misjudgment.
Mileage was actually 409 on the road and 1 by ferry which was an unexpected bonus crossing Lake Champlain.
