I was in upstate NY managing moving my mother's things to storage and wanted to take advantage of the spectacular weather. It was November and temperatures were in the 70s!!

Crossing the Western Gateway Bridge
I always had the urge to cross the bridge from Scotia to Schenectady by bike but somehow never got around to it. Fortunately I scheduled time early in morning today to do it and had a old local friend (who is used to my crazy whims!) join me.
We started from the Scotia side from the Glen Sanders Mansion and once in Schenectady, we crossed over at the Schenectady Community College and returned on the other side. Although it was absolutely gorgeous and sunny outside and the river was calm and serene, the traffic noise of the traffic was deafening and we could hardly hear each other talk,
