Wyndham Grand Desert

Jon de Vos: To Ben and Jerry's by canoe

Nothing happened where it wasn't wet. But when it was, the desert bloomed as nicely as Florida and, just like Florida, the weather is glorious in the winter. Over time, as Florida beachfront reached for stratospheric prices, millions asked themselves, why not move to the desert? And for most of three decades, they did, dragging their lawns and swimming pools behind their motor homes. Way before all this, prior to automobiles, the Colorado River was an uncontrollable torrent, the cascading craftsman of the Grand Canyon. It left Arizona's southeast corner near the town of Yuma and supplied agricultural needs south into Mexico on its way to the Gulf of California. At Yuma, in 1900, the only way to cross into California was by ferry. Even at that, the Colorado River has never been counted among the nation's top 25 rivers by water flow. We just got back from a trip to Upstate New York. It's an area that, for Westerners, was largely impenetrable before the invention of the dashboard GPS. The water, the lakes, and the rivers were mind-boggling. Thousand Island dressing? It's a recipe from an old hotel actually surrounded by a thousand islands in the mouth of the Saint Lawrence River just before it dumps into the Atlantic Ocean. We went to Lake George because it is home to one of only three Howard Johnson Restaurants left in America. Now wait, don't bunch your undies, there's a big difference between Howard Johnson's the restaurant, and Howard Johnson's the Wyndham chain of hotels. Wyndham boasts 462 Hojo hotels worldwide, 311 stateside, but there's only three of the original restaurants left in two New York locations of Lake George and Lake Placid and a third in Bangor, Maine.
