Enjoying a soy-decaf cappuccino in the Bagelry today, I sit next to a retired couple. After imbibing the warmth of the coffee and the Sun, we start chatting. The couple is not from around here, but from Fulton, south of Syracuse. They had been planning to go to CA for vacation, but cancelled their flights at the last moment, deciding instead to stay closer to home. Surfing the web for fun places to visit, they hit upon Potsdam! They loved snow-shoeing at Higley State Park yesterday, enjoyed the Clarkson Inn for one night as well their Airb&b, and were now heading to Stevie’s Trail. No, they had not heard that the cemetery at the end of that walk is also very picturesque and rich in history. Do they regret swapping CA for Potsdam? No! They definitely plan to visit here again. We wish each other a nice rest of the week, and say bye for now.
