		What a pleasant vacation it was when I found Watkins Glen while surfing for a bed and breakfast in the Finger Lakes Region of New York State.
		We went to the Watkins Glen State Forest and was stunned to find the most scenic series of waterfalls and gorges.
		We didn't pick up the map at the entrance gate to the park and thus didn't know there was an option to walk up the gorge or take the shuttle to the rear and walk down it.

		In all, Watkins Glen is a relatively large state park, immensely tidy and orderly with huge and prolific trees, and wonderful paved but narrow roads, perfect for forcing lower speeds among motorists, and perfect for bicycling.
		The terrain in the park is extremely hilly, in fact in my home-town Ontario terms, nearly mountainous, so biking in the park is a perfect workout.
		In general, I was somewhat disappointed by the commercial tone of the countryside surrounding Watkins Glen.
