I pulled over and shut off the motor on the bike. The hill behind me had already choked off the sun and the only remnants of light were from the remaining scattered rays which were coming from the hill on the other side of the valley. As I walked over to the edge of the lookout, I saw the sun still shinning brightly on a few cottages at the very southern end of Canandaigua Lake.
Looking to the north, I saw Vine Valley and Bare Mountain, legendary home of the Seneca Indians. I watched a lone boat make its way up the lake towards Vine Valley to return home to dock for the night. Further up the Lake, the sun still shone on the northern end of Canandaigua Lake.
The cares of the day just seemed to disappear with the vanishing light and I wanted to stay a bit longer and try to hold on to the moment. The vastness of the space before me and the beauty of the hills and the lake completely filled my mind. Tomorrow wasn’t even a thought. If tomorrow comes, it will come from beyond those clouds which you see floating over the distant hills in the Finger Lakes
Undeniably imagine that which you stated. Your favorite reason appeared to be at the web the simplest thing to have in mind of. I say to you, I certainly get annoyed whilst other folks consider issues that they plainly don’t recognise about. You controlled to hit the nail upon the highest and also defined out the entire thing with no need side effect , other people can take a signal. Will probably be again to get more. Thanks
My objective is to blog about things that I have experienced and know about first hand. The pictures that I take are taken by myself and I strive to tell a story which helps to explain what I am seeing or what I am feeling at the time that the pictures were taken.
Superb blog! Do you have any tips for aspiring writers? I’m hoping to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything. Would you suggest starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many choices out there that I’m completely overwhelmed .. Any recommendations? Thank you!
WordPress is the most popular of the blogging softwares. It works well for me but the hardest part is to learn to use the software. If you have the time and the skill, you can learn to use the software yourself. The folks at FingerLakes1 not only set up my website, but they have the resources to go to when you have questions. My blogs also reside on their servers. They charge $30.00 per month for maintenance. Money well spent in my opinion.
This is certainly an exceptional piece of writing! I have saved it and sent this out to most of my buddies as I know they are fascinated, thank you very much!
Thank you. I hope you can visit the overlook near Naples, NY on route 12 sometime. It truly is a special place.

I was recommended this blog by my cousin. I’m not sure whether this post is written by him as no one else know such detailed about my problem. You’re amazing! Thanks!
I write my own blog and take my own pictures for my blog. Our working lifestyles force us to plan far in advance and then we become very frustrated when our plans do not work out. Tomorrow is not guaranteed! It is much better that we spend most of our time on today’s problems and take some time each day just to enjoy the moment.
This is a very good piece of writing! I’ve book-marked it and emailed this out to many of my close friends because I know they’ll be fascinated, thank you very much!
Thank you! Every now and then you hit a winner! The important thing is that you keep stepping up to the plate!

I don’t know what to say to be good. Everyone can to have an oppinion, i say just our oppinion is not the same.
It would be a boring world if we all had the same opinion!

I agree with your Beyond the Clouds in the Finger Lakes |
FLL360.com – Finger Lakes Living, great post.
Thank you. I keep returning to the place where I photographed “Beyond the Clouds in the Finger Lakes”, but I have come up with nothing new. It is impossible to capture on camera the vastness of the Canandaigua Lake Overlook and it’s effect on you, but I keep trying.

Hello, I love your blog. Do you write all of the articles yourself?
Yes, I write the articles myself and take all of the pictures which I use in my blog. The subjects of my articles vary according to the season of the year and what is on my mind at any given moment. I focus on things that please me and bring back remembrances of my growing up on a family farm.
Can I just say how nice it is to find someone who actually knows what they’re speaking about on the web. Many people need to read this write-up and understand this. I’m shocked that this website is not more popualar.
Well, thank you for your kind words. It is my objective to write about things that I see and experience first hand here in the Finger Lakes. I too wish that my readership would expand faster than it has expanded since I began writing this blog, but I am also grateful for folks like yourself who recognize knowledge based reporting.
