Home Away From Home

The kids and I have been watching some outstanding movie and documentaries lately. In particular, we have been impressed with Travel the Road, a television series that ran on TBN and is available as DVDs now. It follows two, and then three, young men who decide to sell everything they have in the States, and [...]

A Review of the Three Tree Inn in Geneva, NY

Totally spoiled. That’s me. After staying at the Three Tree Inn Bed & Breakfast in Geneva, NY, I seriously doubt we will ever rent a hotel room again. Bed & breakfasts are phenomenal. They are even better when they are affordable. That’s the Three Tree Inn. I heard about the Three Tree Inn on Twitter, [...]

Review of Octopus Travel Hotel Search Site

I have been seriously contemplating a visit to the UK, sometime in the future.

I [...]

Fly Creek Cider Mill, Fly Creek, NY

Fly Creek Cider Mill is a little jewel just north of Cooperstown. It’s a combination old-fashioned store/ cider mill/ livestock farm/ educational experience. No wonder it’s such a popular place! And who the heck named the town “Fly Creek”?!

Travel Garb, ADK Plans, and Miscellany

I haven’t written much here of late because there really hasn’t been much to write about. I haven’t been anywhere! I had plans to go to a corn maze and fall festival this weekend, but one of the kids is sick, and I’m not up to snuff myself yet. We’re aiming for next week. Here’s [...]
