Flat Max on.... New York Day Two!


OMC.... buddies... I'm having a great time on my trip.  I love being with Tony and Mike ( and Michael now too....) Here's my report for Saturday...

We had a big day on our trip on Saturday.  We saw a real castle yesterday.. It's called Boldt Castle. It was built by George C. Boldt, the propietor of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel.  He built it to show his love for his wife. Isn't that sweet...?  It's in Alexandria Bay on Heart Island.  Woo hoooo isn't it pretty....?  

And we went to see this big rock... Here I am with it.


It's the crest of the Frontrenac Axis, rocks that connect the Adirondacks with the ancient core of the continent, the Precambrian Terrain of the Canadian Shield.... wha????  Oh...oh.... eyes crossing, but that's what it said on the plaque by it.  I'd tell you the whole thing, but suffice it to say we had fun at the rock... It's a cool rock, don'choo think?

Then we moved on to just enjoying the outside... Since we live in Florida, it's been a long time since I've seen fall colors up close and personal... Here are just a few of the wonderful sites I saw....   BEAUTIFUL...

Look at those colors behind me.  Woohoooo.... beautiful, right?

And I got to sit in this gazebo thingy and enjoy the colors....

And this picture is for Toni, cuz Toni's favorite color is red.... Another beautiful picture, right?

And here I am posing with my new friend, Mr. Scare Crow.  He wasn't very talkative, but was nice.
There you have it, pals.  This is your roving reporter signing off after another day on our tour of New York. I know many of you were worried about the snow.... we haven't seen it yet, but I'll report on it if we see some tomorrow.

For now.... have a great Easy Like Sunday, pals.... And remember  Flat Max loves ya!!!

You got to see Boldt Castle? That's so cool...We live in Kingston, not TOO far from the Castle on the Canadian side and our mom's been on the 3-hour Thousand Islands cruise out of Gananoque endless number of times and even been in the Castle a couple of times. Of course we've never seen it ourselves...We don't even have flat selves. LOL.

Beautiful colours! Be careful Flat Max that you don't get caught in a ny wet stuff! That could be detrimental to your well being!! Just saying ..... :)

Cat Chat With Caren And Cody said...

Max you are so lucky to visit a real life CASTLE! My Mom is obsessed with castles!

Did you meet Rapunzel? Did you see any damsels in distress?

The colors of the trees in NY are nicer than here in Michigan. I am wondering if our super hot summer affected the fall colors.

Enjoy the rest of your trip!
Your pal, Cody

That Castle looks quite beautiful. I am sure there is a lot of sniff in there. Your Scarecrow pal is smiling. I think that is good. Your fall colors are just beautiful
