Day 3 -- Sunday, June 28

Last night I really had a good sleep. We shoved off from the Costia's and went to Burlington, passing through the state capitol. We went south and across the bridge at Port Henry. We went through Lake Placid but took a wrong turn at Saranac Lake and lost time plus 35 miles. We met a little rain, but going up a hill, the brake oil flowed out and we put up for two dollars in the Alpine Hotel after a meal in town. I will be sleeping in a double bed with Mr. Stallings.

I hope to get out of town by 10 and make the 300 miles to Niagara Falls by tomorrow. I met Billy Costia. He's a simple farm boy and a nice 6 foot guy. I'm sure we'll all get along together.
