Epilogue

Our Empire State Road Trip journey covered 12 days and 3,245 miles -- Palm Beach to Chautauqua, NY, across to Watkins Glen, up to Clayton and back to Florida. While we packed a lot in, there were still so much we didn't see. We're very grateful to the Harbor Hotel group who hosted our stays, and to the tourist agencies in Chautauqua, Watkins Glen and the 1000 Islands for their assistance and recommendations. And a special thank you to all the great people we encountered at wineries, museums, restaurants and attractions all along the way. 

While it may not be as fast as other forms of transportation, there's nothing like seeing this wonderful country by car. And in the circumstances of a pandemic, it may be the safest way to see the country. So  when the mood strikes for an adventure, it's all starts at your driveway. Safe travels!
