Dave, You'll be in my old stomping grounds. Prior to beginning our full time lifestyle in 2003, Lorraine and I lived just 40 minutes northeast of Watertown for 10 years and before that another 15 years visiting the 1,000 Islands region.
Even before crossing the border stop in at Kingston and Gananoque in Ontario.
If you are coming back into the states at Watertown on I81 you will be crossing the St Lawrence River and the 1,000 Islands. Plan on spending a few days to a week or more in the 1,000 Island area.
From the 1,000 Islands take Route 12 North to Route 37.
Continue on 37 East
Route 12 and 37 parallel the St Lawrence River and can be a very scenic drive. Above Massena NY you will travel through an Indian Reservation. A good place to refuel the TV and if you are smokers a better place to buy your smokes. Best place for fuel and smokes is the Bears Den. They also have a great little restaurant. While on the "Res" you may want to stop at the casino also located on 37.
Continuing on 37 you will eventually connect with Route 11 to Route 374. Take 374 into Plattsburgh and Lake Champlain.
If you decide to travel the above route PM or email me for additional info.
And stay in touch as we also plan on doing the New England states this summer. We will be at the NE Rally in New Hapshire the first weekend in June and than head out for Maine and eventually Nova Scotia before heading back through northern NY on our way to the MOC rally in Indiana.
