Olcott


 We had a lovely Sunday in Olcott.  We were there for their Community Appreciation Day, which included music, rides on the fire truck (which would have been more fun if it hadn't taken approximately a million years to load people on), and free carousel rides.  (But let this not deter you from visiting the Carousel Museum on some other days -- the regular price is only a quarter.)

It was a beautiful (if somewhat chillier than expected) day by the lake.  The boys really enjoyed the old-fashioned kiddie rides at the Carousel Museum.

We had heard there was a swimming beach there, so we had told Matthew he could dip his feet in the water.  But when we actually made it down to the beach, the water was pretty thick with algae, and the beach was nothing to write home about -- bordered by concrete on one side, small and rocky.  Ah well, the boys enjoyed tossing rocks into the water!
