8:20pm. I'm in Liverpool, NY. I can't find it on 3 different maps. This is starting to worry me.

I stopped on the highway at what had started out as a trading post with the local Hurons. The trader was around for about 60 years, put an end to the Pontiac Uprising, generally was single-handedly responsible for English dominance in this region. Now his home is the site of a Cinnabun.

One of those "be careful what you wish for" times, I'm guessing.

This is the gazebo I stopped at in Fulton, a few towns (I'm guessing) over.

Isn't this kinda near syracuse- and also kinda near the sterling Renn faire (north westish - going towards lake ontario?)

If so - I beleive there is a really cool living history museum nearby- which may or may nor still be there- called St. Marie among the Iraquois - all about the Indians and the christian missionaries who came to stay with them and tried to christianize them. dave and i once had a lengthy interaction there w/ an indian interpreter who spoke no english and yet fascinated us so much more than many renn faire performers.

lovely

You can't find Liverpool, NY on a map? Hmmm...I've never heard of it before. LOL maybe it's just so small a place that it isn't worth putting on a map? LOL I have no idea...I've never been there. Maybe it's the true "middle of nowhere" lol. Take care!
