Bentley Brook

We arrived at Bentley Brook this afternoon. We drove 11 hours yesterday and drove through some heavy rain and eventually darkness. We decided to stop and stay overnight in Syracuse, NY. We travelled the rest of the way, 3 hours, today. The resort is beautiful. The leaves are just starting to change so by the end of the week they should be brilliant. The rolling hills make me wonder once again why I live in the Midwest. ? ? ? We have only done some relaxing since we arrived, with no desire to get back in the car so soon. The weather is perfect for walking around the resort. There is a neat pumpkin farm with a hay ride just a little ways down the mountain. We'll have to check that out.

I talked to my family this afternoon and Madison's CYS team lost this morning and her Flames team tied 2-2 this afternoon. Quinn's team lost 0-2 to Nate's team. Today is Nate's birthday, complete with a soccer birthday party.

Hopefully I'll be able to post about more adventures to come. They have free Internet usage in the main lobby. Pictures will have to wait until I get home though.

Lots of love, Leah

Glad that you made it safely there and have some down time to get rested up. Looks like you went there at the "right time" of year for the leaves to change color. Have a wonderful time and glad you have internet!
