This is the kind of park you would expect in a fairytale. Rolling hills of green, green grass…sunset over the Hudson River… Intricately crafted wooden gazebos and bridges, winding wooded trails through the forest. If you’re looking for a picture perfect park experience, visit Poet’s Walk Park [776 River Rd […]
When I’m traveling I love getting to some vantage point where I can see the skyline, the heartbeat of the city. The best place to do that in Boston was from the center of Harvard Bridge [Massachusetts Ave and Beacon St Boston, MA 02138]. There is a pedestrian/biker friendly lane […]

We took a brisk walk at this interesting preserve the other day (319 Joslen Boulevard, Hudson). There is a little parking lot and there are trail maps provided, so grab one and go! Fresh snow on the ground, but the trails weren’t slippery or icy for the most part. There […]
When you’re on Delaware Ave heading towards Delmar, maybe heading towards Jim’s Tastee Freeze, right before you cross the bridge you may have noticed a little green sign that says Normanskill Farm. I turned down there one day, and found a pretty special place. Turns out there is a lot […]
