A mild, yet scenic nature walk right outside the town Woodstock was naturally filled with hikers, families, and dog walkers on a sunny day. Comeau [1 Comeau Dr Woodstock, New York 12498 – upper lot is closer to trail entrance] has just over a mile of trails to explore so […]

So close to the bustling town of Woodstock, but so far away. Follow the quiet country roads passed the interesting historical signs and beautiful homes. Mount Guardian [Byrdcliffe Theater Parking, 380 Upper Byrdcliffe Road, Woodstock NY] is a hike just outside of a popular town, but we didn’t see anyone […]
It’s funny how you can walk by something however many times and never notice it’s there. That was my story with Shindig [1 Tinker St, Woodstock, NY 12498], until one faithful afternoon when it finally appeared to me. It’s right in the center of town with a kitschy muted storefront. […]
Jamaican patties and jerk chicken were my only experience with Jamaican cuisine prior to visiting, these foods commonly found in New York. I loved trying authentic versions of these delicious old favorites and also learning about a whole new world of mouthwatering dishes. Jamaican cuisine is amazingly vibrant with influences […]
It’s everything I want from Woodstock: sunshiny, organic, kitsch, and aside from all that – a truly tasty lunch spot. Sunfrost Farms [217 Tinker St, Woodstock, NY 12498] has got it going on, and therefore is understandably packed on a weekend. Just outside the hubbub of the main drag find […]

This weekend we hit the road and headed up to the Adirondacks. Our destination was Sleeping Beauty Mountain for a nice 7 mile hike. The lot was relatively packed, but the numerous trails were anything but crowded. We scored some delicious apples from a tree along the trails. And noticed […]
Had a fun dinner at New World Home Cooking in Woodstock recently. The place gets packed, so definitely make a reservation. They give you a big hunk of thick bread to dip in what I believe was some hummus concoction to hold you over until you get your meal. We […]
I had the loveliest time roaming about the Catskills yesterday. First stop was for breakfast at Sweet Sue’s in Phoenicia, and wow, what a treat. This place is known for their pancakes and they have many eclectic options to choose from. I think this may have been the most epically […]
If you are up for taking a nice cruise down the thruway, I’ve got a place for you to visit. Storm King Art Center is a huge sculpture park with some pretty impressive pieces. This park is set in a natural scene with rolling hills, a creek, and wildflowers. It […]
Are you in to art, architecture, museums, nature, or masonry? I think Opus 40 falls in to one or many of these categories. Opening day is May 22nd, so you have a few days to plan an adventure down the thruway. One man built this whole structure, and it is a […]
