Welcome To My Home Page
My Name is Jim Duell and I am from Perry,NY which is in Wyoming County. I am fasinated with all the different towns and villages in New York State That Hold A Yearly Festival. For example in Perry we have our yearly Sea Serpent Balloon Festival. This is a 3 - day event in June that has Arts & Crafts, Food of all kinds, balloon flights twice each day of the festival at 6:00 am & 6:00 pm depending on the weather conditions. Our fire department which I have belonged to for 30 years has a breakfast on Saturday & Sunday morning with all you can eat for a great price. There is games for the children. And the best of all is the balloons going up. We have it all in Perry,NY. Check out Photo Page 2 for some great balloon pictures.

Hi! I am Jim Duell
Carol & I are at the New York State Fair with Butch & Teresa & Adie. We all usually go to the fair together every year. I have my new Kodak 290 Digital Camera that I will be taking lots of pictures with.

AUGUST 2001 LIGHTHOUSE TRIP
Along with going to the different festivals around the state we have wanted for a while to start visiting some of the different lighthouses on a weekend that nothing else was planned. That is just what we done this weekend. Carol visited the Charlotte Lighthouse on friday afternoon and got to go all the way up to where the light is. Then today August 25,2001 we went and visited the Thirty Mile Point Lighthouse in Somerset, NY. This was a beautiful place and it was a sunny day with a good breeze. I went all the way to the top and got some great shots from the balcony just below the light. On the Photo Page I will put some photos from both lighthouses on these pages.
