The Best of Steamboat, CO Summers – A Photo Tour

I have enjoyed visiting Colorado in the winter in the past but it is no secret that summers are my favorite and when it comes to finding fun things to do, Steamboat Springs delivers. And the word is out. It used to be that the energy of the town and even that of[...]

Winter Vacationing for The Non-Skier at Keystone, CO

My first trip for 2014 was a bit of a whirlwind. After a bit of trouble getting out of New York due to weather, I made my way to Las Vegas for conferences...more on that soon. I have to say that conferences are nice, speaking at them even nicer, and reconnectin[...]

New cafe alert! @franklinstreetmarketflx in Watkin New cafe alert! @franklinstreetmarketflx in Watkins Glen, NY is the newest, and quite honestly, the best cafe in town. After a couple of tries I have to say this is THE spot for coffee/matcha in WG. Their breakfast sandwiches and smash burgers are SO good (Zomg…the tallow French fries are the most wickedly satisfying indulgence). Open daily till 4pm (with later hours potentially in the horizon), right on Franklin Street, just steps from the pier and a short drive from the @senecalakewine. 

Happy eating!

Listen, I have a few more things I want to enjoy, Listen, I have a few more things I want to enjoy, see, and do before summers’ end but as of today there are 56 days till fall and the signs are already here…as seen from the apples that have fallen from our trees. 

So if you are hesitating to take that road trip, jump in that lake, camp in those woods, gather outside with friends for a little grilling and fun in the sun, this is your cue to get to it. Time waits for no one. And there’s so much life to live. So, get to it! 

See you out there.
Add this spot to your next visit to Naples, NY. 📍@plenty_the_diner is one of those spots that you know is going to be yummy the second you walk in. This airy, modern diner brings all the made-from-scratch goodness we locals have grown to love from their sister bakery, the OG, @plenty_the_bakery in South Bristol, NY, both owned by Brendan and Michelle Halloran. 

The blueberry pancakes I shared with hubby were a favorite for me, especially with the in-season blueberries on top. And the Plenty Bowl wasn’t much a “bowl” per say but it was the perfect diner breakfast combo of home fries topped with melted cheese curds (Zomg 😋), your choice of eggs and breakfast meats. There are sandwiches and salads to choose from as well if you are leaning more towards lunch, and of course, freshly baked pastries. No espresso drinks but another highlight for me was their cold brew - which surpassed any “diner coffee” I’ve ever had. 

There might be a short wait but on a nice day you can wait at one of the picnic tables located in the park right next to the diner. 

Wonderful staff, lovely vibe, and a perfect start to your day exploring sweet Naples.

24 hours of Josie 🐾 have been such a joy as she 24 hours of Josie 🐾 have been such a joy as she has already proven to be every bit of the cuddly, playful, curious, gentle doggie we knew she would be. Will she be put outside to guard livestock? No. She is far more likely to be on the couch getting belly rubs and watching TV with us, or going for long walks in the park or around our country cottage, or falling asleep in her cushy bed.
