Biking along the Barge Canal is great. There is a trail that goes from Oriskany all the way to Herkimer, NY. It truly is a great way to see central NY. There are all kinds of neat things to see along the ride. Everything from wildlife, unique landscapes and historical land marks.

If you can take the time to get out of your house. Sometimes some of the most beautiful things are right in your back yard.

This is just a picture taken at dust over the Utica Marsh. It was spring, and everything was looking blue that day. It made me feel relaxed and happy to be living in Utica, NY
