| Part of the city of Utica, taken from our room window on the 9th floor at the Hotel Utica. Utica is a big residential area, except for the business district in the Genesee Street area(where our hotel was). Sadly, the district is not as populated with businesses as it once was-many have moved or closed altogether. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| More of Utica, looking to the South. That tall building on the left is the New York State Office Building at Utica. The diagonal road is Genesee Street. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| **6/26/04- See Below. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| That's Genesee Street in downtown Utica. (Genesee Street is sort of like Utica's Main Street.). Genesee Street heads North towards the Thruway (I-90) at Exit 31 off the Thruway, and has an exit for it up ahead, hence this sign. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Interesting painting on a building on Genesee Street in downtown Utica. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| We're on our way home to Long Island now. This is some nice scenery along I-90 (Thruway mainline) Eastbound , in either Herkimer or Montgomery counties. More spectacular views are found to the South of here on I-88. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
BGS along I-90 (Thruway mainline) Eastbound in Schenectady county. This is for exit 26 (I-890, NY 5, NY 5S), and leads to the downtown Schenectady area. The weather was changing- it was getting warmer and sunnier as we got closer to home. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| BGS along I-90 (Thruway mainline) Eastbound at Exit 25A. (I-88 West, NY 7) I-88 heads Westbound to Howes Cave, Cooperstown, Oneonta, and ultimately Binghamton and the I-81 corridor. Again, some spectacular scenery can be found along I-88. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| **6/26/04- Geocities screwed up two of the photos on this page (that's why they're gone) and won't let me upload anything else. If I figure this out, I'll update again. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| BGS along I-90 (Thruway mainline) Eastbound in Albany county. This is for Exit 24 (I-87 North, I-90 East). This exit leads to downtown Albany (NY State Capitol), Saratoga Springs, the Adirondack Mountains area, Plattsburgh (NY) and ultimately Montreal, Quebec. The I-90 they are talking about is NYSDOT-maintained free I-90 through downtown Albany. If you continue on the Thruway mainline (it becomes I-87 South after this exit), the NY Thruway's Berkshire Spur (I-90) (NYSTA Maintained) will branch off from the Thruway mainline (I-87) and head ultimately towards Boston, MA as the Massachusetts Turnpike (MASS PIKE). From here, the Thruway mainline continues South as I-87 to New York City. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
