Everyone was eager to get going this morning. Our visit to the Corning Museum of Glass turned out to be an unexpected highlight for some and enjoyable for everyone. The displays were so varied with glass blowing demonstrations, glass pieces dating back to hundreds of years before
Christ, contemporary art glass, and everything in between. Shopping was also fun with choices from Steuben pieces priced up to $28,000 all the way to Corelle dishes and glass Christmas ornaments. (see the glass tree to the left)
The afternoon was spent driving across the state of New York. The tree-covered Allegheny Mountains seemed to be at peak fall colors, a real treat. Picturesque valley farms made for great scenery. The weather turned windy and rainy, so it was a gift to be inside. By the time we passed through Pennsylvania and into Ohio, the rain quit and the sun came out before we arrived at our hotel.-Laurel Johnson, Tour Director

We counted today and realized that we have crossed through 14 states and one Canadian province on our tour.
