Driving Northeast to Rotterdam, New York






Back to Interstate 86 East....




Binghamton is 52 miles away.

I wonder if the Road Construction
at the major interchange is done.






Clouds dip down over the crest
of the mountain ahead on this
rainy day.






There's just enough rain hitting the windshield to make photography challenging.















Exit 72 A, on the left, will take
Eric & me to Interstate 88.

Speed has been reduced to
45 miles per hour.










Driving in the rain is tiresome.






Eric will take a break while
I drive for a bit.











Rain & clouds dull the western
approach to the Schoharie Valley.






The fertile valley bursts
with spring's new growth.








We leave I 88 for State Route 7
at Exit 23. 

There's a Valero Gas Station on State Route 7 with accessible Diesel fuel selling for $2.99 per gallon.





An old Gulf Gas Station sign
in front of an older building
in Quaker Street.







A large truck is fueling at the accessible Diesel Pump at Valero.  If we pull in behind it, Eric and I will be blocking the Gas Station's driveway and we don't want to wait on the narrow road shoulder for fuel for the pump to become available.  Our drive east continues.













With our My Rewards Discount
Card, Diesel costs about 40
cents more per gallon at the
Pilot Travel Center in Rotterdam.

There are plenty of vacant
Diesel pumps available
here.  Convenience has its costs.
 Eric and I are on our home turf.  Let's visit Eric's mom, Jerry, before driving to Cummins an oil change.
