Mooove over Buffalo

3
Sunrise and actual sun! I watched it slowly burning the fog from the fields in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Most of Ohio passed in the night, and Toledo was a bit early for cognitive thought today.
Passed by part of the shore on lake Erie, someone on the train asked "which ocean that was?"
Pennsylvania is getting some grape fields in, any New York is bragging on their wines from the finger lake region,specifically calling a challenge to Napa valley!
Caught t
E right bus back to the station -first try!
Picked up the big bag to consoldate for the carry on only portion of the trip...I knew things were going too well.
I blew out the zipper! Not just not closing, oh no! The zipper pulled off of the nylon fabric of the bag, or rather shredded itself to a state of freedom!
Dang, I didn't pack any duct-tape. I did pack my heavy duty sewing kit, and used that along with my belt. I only need it to hold another 6 or so hours till I get to Nessie's. Once I unpack, I will try for a better repair job for the return trip.

Slowly rolling into Buffalo I wa a bit saddened by the number of fabulous buildings, wonderful brick architecture, standing vacant, a testament to our decline in US manufacturing. I will y to get some pictures before heading home.
Not sure of the population, but Stockton might be bigger.
My list of states visited (airports do not count) is growing! I will soon have the contiguous stes covered, and Alaska is done, Hawaii and a couple territories elude me!
