An incredible day uncovering lower, middle and upper falls! After a day climbing the stairs at Watkins Glen we were looking forward to the respite of driving around to the Falls. The lower falls does require a short hike down some stairs with a couple of options for views. One from a bridge as seenContinue reading “NY: Letchworth State Park”

CT: Redding: Saugatuck Falls
Today was a perfect day for forest bathing. The wind shook the trees sending the leaves of many colors through the air and over the waterfall to the babbling brook until finally resting on the mossy rocks. It was a great show! Saugatuck Fall in Redding CT 491 Redding Rd, Redding, CT 06896 Park acrossContinue reading “CT: Redding: Saugatuck Falls”
NY: Catskills of Sullivan County Shout Outs
While I love the Catskills, I found Sullivan County hit or miss so I share my favorites. Entertainment – Bethel Woods – cooking demonstrations and tasting – the home of 1969 Woodstock Dinner and Wine – Seminary Hill Vineyard Cattail Brook Falls- Livingston Manor – a bit hidden in plain sight.

NY: Catskills- Peekamoose Bluehole
For a couple of years I read about a small swimming hole with a blue glow within the NY Catskill preserve. It would get so busy that now it requires reservations and is manned to ensure it’s kept clean. I met a really nice 25 year old ranger named Eli who checked us in. HeContinue reading “NY: Catskills- Peekamoose Bluehole”

A little bit of Europe in CT walking along the Naugatuck Greenway on Housatonic River. The greenway starts in Derby and is planned for 44 miles to Torrington.

ThereContinue reading “CT: Fairfield County: Naugatuck Greenway & Indian Wells”
CT: Hartford County- Blackledge Falls (Winter)
I stood in the center of Blackledge Falls in Glastonbury, CT which was literally frozen in time. I included myself in the shot for scale. It’s Connecticut’s natural ice castles and is truly amazing to see. About 1/2 mile hike from the lot but it is a steep decline to the falls so must wearContinue reading “CT: Hartford County- Blackledge Falls (Winter)”
CT: New Haven County- Milford (Winter Waterfalls)
The temperature was 7 with a windchill of below zero. One of my go to activities on such days are finding easy waterfalls to go see. Fortunately, Duck Pond Falls in Milford fit the bill! But baby was it cold outside! I was fascinated by the different ice formations created by the falls. The waterContinue reading “CT: New Haven County- Milford (Winter Waterfalls)”
