Question # 2

This is a two part question. I have mentioned that the revolutionary war memorial in Bennington is the tallest structure in Vermont, how tall is it, and what hangs on the ground floor captured from the British?

306 ft and the oldest flag

306 ft and the oldest flag

I told everyone that this one would be harder, 1/2 right.

AND General Burgoyne's cook kettle and the monument is actually 306 feet 4 and 1/2 inches tall, and Paul V. Winters, a Vermont artist, constructed a diorama depicting the Second Engagement of the hard-fought Bennington Battle, which hangs inside the entrance.

General Burgoyne's cook kettle and the monument is actually 306 feet 4 and 1/2 inches tall. That's my final answer.

My wife said I was splitting hairs, so Dave you are the winner of prize # 2 as this is also on the spyder ride at americade courtesy ounce again by Arctic Adventures of Rosendale, NY. Isn't history fun, now I will have to find out about that flag. It can't be there, not enough security.

Last minute urge for road trip has me thinking about heading solo to Americade. I've never been so maybe this is the year.

Any ideas on reasonable motel relatively close to or, in Lake George???

If I make it, will definetely do the ride on the 9th....

I stayed in a place called Lake Side a few years ago, walking distance to town. Nothing fancy but reasonable. Ken Tompkins is staying at one in town with some friends but I don't remember the name. Maybe he will post. This late though you might have to goggle Lake George chamber of commerce to get a list of places and start calling. Let us know how you make out.

A group of four of us are staying at the Studio Motel -- http://www.studiomotel.com/

I'm not sure if they have any rooms left but you could call. It is just over the hill from the sales area so it's fairly close.

It would be great if you could join us.

The not so good news (well, not really!), .. my riding buddy talked me into bringing the two-wheelers so we can ride the twisties in that area that one can only do on a motorcycle!!!!!..
