There is no specific reason we chose to visit Fredonia. We just woke up one morning, and I said, "let's go to New York". Hubby agreed, and we found a pet friendly inn that was within a 4 hour drive for us. We called, and got their last room, packed some clothes and the dogs, and off we headed.
The drive on highways would have been less than 3 hours, but we like to avoid major highways on leisure trips, particularly with the dogs, so we got to see gorgeous sights along the way.
Finally, we got to the inn and it was adorable!
Our room was so charming!
Hubby and I settled in, fed the dogs, and went exploring. We only had a couple of hours of daylight left, so we drove along Lake Erie,
went to Lake Erie State Park,
then watched the sunset in Dunkirk. Finally, we headed to dinner.
After we ate dinner, we headed back to the inn. We had dessert in the inn's restaurant, and I said to Hubby, "this feels like we are on a date", to which he replied "who says we aren't?". It was the perfect ending to a wonderful day.
The next day we got up and headed out. Our trip to New York was a short one, but enough to satisfy me for another year of leaf peeping.
