Monday, September 1, 1919

Overcast day. Some rain at night. Uncle Charlie & Mr. and Mrs. Ford called. To Thompson's lake and Indian Ladder. Took Uncle John Myers and Anna along. 56 miles. Had cooked dinner. To bed 9:15 P.M.

Interesting that Stanford had put Uncle John Myers, then crossed it out, perhaps recognizing that John Myers was really a cousin rather than an uncle.  Still not sure about Uncle Charlie.

Thompson's Lake is located about 18 miles southwest of Albany.

Indian Ladder is an ancient trail found at Thatcher Park in Voorheesville; here is what one website had to say about it:

It was built by the Schoharie Indians along the Helderberg Escarpment as a trading route. In order to scale the particularly steep cliffs on the trail, they built an actual ladder.
