Some 350 miles after leaving Newburyport earlier this afternoon, I checked into a Super 8 motel into the so-called flatware capital of the world. That is, if the Oneida brand name is considered the best in forks, knives, and spoons. If tomorrow wasn’t a Sunday, I’d consider seeing if they offered factory tours.
Albeit night, Oneida, New York seems to be a quiet city. I’m about to take off for the Turning Stone Casino, five miles northeast, which I passed to find this motel. I’ll eat dinner, play some poker, and watch the Pats-Giants game which allegedly started a few minutes ago.
Tomorrow morning, after spending some time in Canton, NY, I’ll cross the border somewhere and head to Ottawa. In 2001, I only visited Parliament Hill briefly but never slept the night. I just made a reservation for a Days Inn in downtown Ottawa, so I’ll see what it’s like to spend the last Sunday of the year in Canada’s capital city.
