So, I made it to Oneida. I rode by the Oneida Community Mansion and looked around the town. Tomorrow, I will take the tour and be on my way. So, in a way today is a rest day.
I found the Oneida books that I have been looking for for about 2 weeks. I have been reading most of the morning. I found a great book that is a reproduction of a diary of a community member from 1876 with commentary. The member, a man, fell in love with another member. Personal and community strife followed. They ultimatly left the community. Very interesting.
Over all Oneida is a very pleasent town. There are huge, wonderful, brick houses everywhere. It is a town that seems like it has been around forever and will last forever too.
