A very long short day

We are trying to take a more laid back approach to the trip, so we chose to head east on Highway 20 rather than taking the New York Thruway.  We should have just paid the toll.

We set out in the rain and by the time we hit the beltway around Buffalo it was a downpour.  Even the GPS couldn't keep us from missing our exit in the rain.  We did eventually manage to find Hwy 20 which goes right through Canadaigua, but about 20 miles short of our destination, the Garmin gremlin decided to have a little fun and recalculated our route, sending us off on a roundabout tour of side roads and small towns.  By the time we realized our mistake, turning around and backtracking made even less sense, so we soldiered on.

It is now early afternoon and we have settled in.  It took about 3 hours to go the last 90 miles and I'm plum tuckered.
