Day 3 - Less rain, more animals.

The day started out with a fabulous breakfast at the B&B. We had omelets with raw cow’s milk cheese from a local farm, wild mushrooms, and spinach. I just can’t say enough good things about the Cedar Hill Farm B&B–Mom, you would love this place!
For our first activity of the day, we crossed the Hudson [...]

Day 2 - Rainy, but good.

Saturday was wet.
We drove from Aberdeen, Maryland to Gardiner, New York, and we had the windshield wipers on for the entire trip. We rolled into Gardiner around 2:15, and headed straight for the Red Rooster Cafe. No Rhett Miller sightings yet. Lunch was delicious, and we had sides of creamy purple beets with our sandwiches. [...]

As a warm up to our excursion to the North, Beth and I hung out with our friends Aubrey, Tim and their tiny wiggly worm Cooper. Below are some scenes from our afternoon at GW’s place.
So sit back and enjoy one minute and twenty-two seconds of seriously over dramatized film making, with a loud and [...]

Vacation starts in 6 days!

Why did we chose to go to Canada and New York? I began studying French in middle school, kept up with it in high school, and it became one of my majors in college. In fact, I spent my senior year living in Aix-en-Provence, France. I rarely speak French now, but I miss it. And [...]
