A dash cam video of Route 9 in my beautiful Hudson Valley, New York State, U.S.A. Route 9 starts as Broadway in Manhattan, goes north through the Hudson Valley, Saratoga and Lake George. The complex at the end of the video is the one I live in. My apartment porch looks off into two miles of rolling, craggy, wooded hills and bottom lands until you reach Route 9G. It seems every north/south route in the region wants a piece of the Route 9 cachet.

This picture, taken by the same device just before I recorded the video clearly shows how I feel about this area, (and the new me)!
