Where's Noro? (Where's Waldo?)



Our traveling Kuryeon finally found it's color way at the botanical gardens!  Can you find him?

Ithaca is Gorges!



Ithaca, NY is known for the gorges in the area. It's slogan is "Ithaca is gorges", which are gorgeous. Kureyon took an afternoon trip to a state park with a large gorge with waterfalls. Trees and plants grow right out of the side of the cliffs, so tree roots grab on anywhere and how they can. The walls of the gorge reach 400 feet high in places.

Kureyon Visits the Gardens

Colorways come from many different sources of inspiration.  Kureyon visits one possible source.  The Cornell Botanical Gardens where he stopped for a photo op in a patch of Queen Ann's lace, chicory, and small sunflowers.

On the Silver Spray


Kureyon's last day at Lake George.  They went out on the Silver Spray for a ride across Lake George.  The Silver Spray is a lovely old wooden motor boat. Lake George is 32 miles long and 1 mile wide.

Lake George, New York

Kayaking with Becky
Our traveling yarn gnome visited Lake George in Upstate New York. It is a beautiful deep, clear, cold, fresh water lake surrounded by low mountains. While there, Kureyon stayed at the Silver Bay YMCA of the Adirondaks, which is about two thirds of the way up on the west side of the lake. He enjoyed kayaking followed by hiking. The hike took Becky and Kureyon several miles into the woods above Silver Bay to Uncas Falls.
