I think I saw Cannonball!

One of my adventures sunday, after the dinner was getting a flat in the vincinity of Hurley on Rt 28 on the way to Onteora lake with Ralph and Maddy... I could vaguely hear some clicking as I was going down Rt 28... and then suddenly, the distinctive sounds of a flat... damm, no nice place to park so I wound up parking at an abandoned gas station to change the tire to my donut.

As such, for fear of getting run over by a semi while I was going in my cruise control 50mph (the max rated speed of a donut) on the NYS Speedway, I drove home via Rt 209/213/32/208/17/202/23 (how's that for integer soup?). Anyway, as I was crossing Rt 299 in New Paltz, and continuing down Rt 208, I think I spotted Cannonball walking on the sidewalk going north but on the southbound side just across from the SUNY NP campus... Was going too fast to stop and beep but it looked like Cannonball... Around 3:07pm!
