I know I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, but this part of the world where I live is wonderful. The more I explore it, the more I love it. I would be no Hudson Valley blogger worth her salt if I didn’t write up a little something about our new crowning jewel, [...]

(You know how on House, MD they always think it’s Lupus? In the Hudson Valley, any unclear symptoms are Lyme disease.) Either way, I left work early on Friday and slept [...]
