The Fishing Vacation
Hubby and I took off for our vacation on Indian Lake, in the Adirondack Mountains of northeastern New York State.
Hubby said I needed to get away and relax. Besides the up and down of walking, driving and moving in general in mountains he provided just that. I'm amazed at how quiet the forest really was.
We left Brick on Saturday, August 29th, at about 11:00 en route to catch the canoe manufacturer by 4pm- Hornbeck Boats. They are near Olmstedville NY and middle of nowhere!
Picked up boat and proceeded to nearby town of Schroon Lake. (Scaroon, that is). Found a vacancy at Maple Leaf Motel where we stayed for the night. We also picked some apples from a tree on site. Noticing many apple trees along the trip. But ...I haven't mentioned any fishing -
Upon arrival at area we fished a little brook until we were caught in a fierce downpour and probably left our chairs at that spot because of it! The first signs that the weather may be a bit "flukey" in the mountains, on a lake!
Next morning, Sunday, August 30, 2020, we set out to our final destination as far as 'home base' is concerned-- The Burkes Cottages,at Indian Lake, Sabael, NY.
I believe we fished somewhere Sunday night-will need to ask hubby ! lol. But we settled in to Cabin # 2 at the cottages and planned a canoe trip across the Indian Lake the next morning.
The grounds at the cottages, I must mention, were beautiful and beautifully kept. Simple, but with my most favorite things--aromatic flowers. I knew I was in the 'right' place. "The scent of Heaven, because of Jesus",
