A trip to Cooperstown. It's a beautiful town with museums, a state park and Brewery Ommegang. Plus a lake nearby for kayak rentals. Then back home for some Kurver Kreme.

I’d like to take a drive to Whiteface Mountain; check out the view from the top, and then explore the village of Lake Placid.

A day trip I have planned is to take the train down to Hudson, wander around, take the ferry to Athens for dinner at the brewpub, & then back. (Hat tip to Mr. Crary.)

Almost always have a beer from Shmaltz Brewing Company in the fridge but always have some Ironweed from Albany Distilling Company on the bar.

Let's get to Vermont!

We definitely want to get to Olana, again, now that they have opened up the house for tours. If you go, just be aware that parking can be limited and they are under construction, so walking around, a little more challenging. Also, that many tours sell out, so booking ahead is important.

My husband and I would love to attend the Drink Saratoga at the Automobile Museum. My husband is really into cars and Saratoga is a great place to visit. We would enjoy having a little day trip to Saratoga (we have 3 small children hard to get away.)
