A Day Of Near Perfection

I needed a day of roaming.  I needed a day out on the road.  Today was one of those rare days where perfection was as close as could possibly be!  Here are the factors and stats into today's near perfection:

• hitting the road at 9AM
• temps in the mid-70's
• 250 miles of back roads (some flat, some hilly and curvy, some on top of mountains, some lakeside)
• 5 miles of hiking (some steep climbs, some sandy beaches, some flat trails)
• bright sun and no clouds
• a full sunset and a simultaneous moon rise (near full) - at Irondequoit Outlet
• fall foliage
• endless tunes
• a reliable car
• a picnic lunch
• a spontaneous stop at a winery
• amazing unique natural attractions (waterfalls at Watkins Glen State Park, cliffs at Chimney Bluffs State Park)
• no schedule, no interruptions (cell phone was off)
• home at 8PM 

11 hours of peace and bliss and relaxation and inspiration...couldn't ask for anything more!
