    40 min was too short for this video because every second was shot so beautifully. The roads in Pennsylvania and New York State are beautiful so was the interesting visit to the farm. Last but not the least I can never get enough of Mackinac island - the most beautiful place in the USA. I remember the last time you went to Mackinac island you were alone and you promised you would take your wife there the next time - a promise well kept :) Looking forward to Vermont 👍🏻

Isn't northern PA and Central NY so beautiful? From the way you went from Albany to Vermont I'm thinking that maybe you made your 1st Vermont stop in Bennington! Vermont is absolutely Beautiful and can't wait to see your Vermont footage. I have been to all of the New England states...im from Rhode Island😊😊😊! OUTSTANDING video footage Robert👍👍👍👍.

    I cannot believe you towed a camp trailer through Downtown Albany! I work in the building directly behind the State Capitol, and travel several of the streets in this video daily. As you saw, the narrow streets and all the pedestrians downtown make for a tricky driving situation. Much respect to you for pulling that off safely as you did. Glad you were able to get to Vermont and crossed that item off your "to-do" list.

    Howdy Robert! Wow, you certainly covered a lot of territory in this episode. Love the windshield view traveling through small towns, farmlands, forests and green rolling hills.

Until next week, happy trails!

    Seeing this episode made me think of a recent change at my work. Our purchasing manager is originally from Sault Ste Marie, Ontario. She moved back at the beginning of the month. I told her that there was an item on my bucket list of places I wanted to see which was just south of there. I told her it was the Mackinac Bridge. She told me that if I ever made it to see the bridge to make sure I visited Mackinac Island. I told her that I had seen your first visit there and said I would definitely check it out one day! Loved seeing the Kinzua Bridge, also a must see for me if I get to that area! When the bridge was whole they ran excursion trains across the bridge. It was interesting to see how the NY Capitol building bore a striking resemblance to our Canadian Parliament Buildings. Glad you made it to Vermont and am looking forward to seeing your adventures there!

When we have to contact him is when we realised what happened. Black horse carts with 4 lights on all 4 side like Sherlok homes setting and all. Very surreal experience of being lost and all. a ride that bacame adventrous and made us best friends.

    If all you want to see are colors then it should be doable in Quebec, Ontario, upstate NY, Vermont, Maine. Vermont likely has nicest mountains to show them off but colored trees are all around. I think you don't like chilly temperatures but in this case it might be unavoidable.

    Fall colors came late last year, it all depends on the mix of cold weather and rain. Cold makes them change and rain knocks them off the trees. The cold came late and was followed by lots of rain, so it was a late short season. Hopefully next Autumn will be a little more colorful.

    Yes you should do a tour someday in your older age of every state capital and get a indoors to indoors tour of each one!!!
    The architecture of the New York State capital and I believe also of course the Canadian Parliament building, Is is Belgian architecture. And write down the street from the capital you're the highway you accidentally go in downtown is downtown is the former Delaware and Hudson headquarters headquarters building which is also beautiful for a beautiful Flemish architecture, Gargoyles and all. It is one of my favorite buildings I've ever seen on the planet so far, But it has been remodeled by the New York State University system who now runs it as administration building, with new energy efficient windows, and such, but they did a good job
