Day 8 - Niskayuna to Albany

Had dinner and stayed for entertainment (John Kirk and Trish
Miller), then back to Holly's for a good night's sleep, which I got.
Up around 7am, had breakfast, then back to JCC around
8:15-8:30. Passed a ew stragglers once I hit the bike path, but
traffic was generally much lighter than I had expected. Small
crowd at Niskayuna train station, bigger crowd at Colonie Town
Park rest stop. Said a few good-byes there and continued on.
Trail now goes all the way to Cohoes, and is paved. Then, streets
to Watervliet and rejoin trail to Albany. Arrived to a chorus of
"hurrahs" accorded every finisher.
