My distractions continue--swimming and triathlon training are a bit off topic from this blog but that's where I've been. But a drive through the Finger Lakes and one of my last days of vacation have brought me back to my senses--meaning the smell, taste, and beautiful sights of our region.
Don't tell my tri coach but I just had a dish of salted caramel ice cream at Cayuga Lake Creamery chased down by a wine tasting at Eleven Lakes Winery--both on route 89. Don't worry, because I'm still in training (taper no less), I took full advantage of the spit bucket.
I hope to post more on Eleven Lakes soon but had to post a little something from the road. I love what they are doing--it was their Cab Franc that we used to wash down the amazing Zach pizza from Niles Country Bistro. We left today with a bottle of their Crooked Lake Red, a semi dry red blend. This one year old winery is one to watch.
Cayuga Lake Creamery is the BEST!

Good luck with your training.. my hubby has been doing some mini-tris lately and loves it. Boy, does he build up an appetite!
