Back From Leave
By Lt Col P
I'm back from a most restorative and pleasant week of leave, spent in Saranac Lake, NY (home of the world-famous winter carnival). For those of you who are cross-country skiers, please see an exceptionally well written article on that area's magnificent Jackrabbit Trail in Cross Country Skier magazine.
The drive north through NY was a tour through some of America's most famous battlefields, like Saratoga and Fort Ticonderoga. If you haven't seen those sights, not to mention the great Adirondack State Park, you owe yourself a visit.
BTW, in line with John's post below on the Poles (God Bless 'em), I invite you to peruse this website, and you'll get a good idea of what kind of ally we have in Poland. In the three years since the article was written, I think they've only gotten better.
Will be posting more shortly!

And don't forget to make the drive up the Veteran's Memorial Highway to the summit of Whiteface Mountain.
Thank you again.
There is a book written in Polish - "GROM". Pretty interesting. Maybe when I have time in the future I can translate parts into English.
On leave and in Saranac Lake and you didn't come see the Battle of 1812 re-enactments in Plattsburgh? Here is where 1,500 New Yorkers stopped 30,000 British and Canadian troops.
Glad to hear you enjoyed our little slice of heaven in upstate NY.

Glad you enjoyed your vacation in my Home state
That part of the state sure is beautiful, huh?
