Sleepy Hollow Ghosts (Part 2)

Steaming Scones and Stunning Views (Part 1)

It’s fall and almost October so time to escape to the Hudson Valley where I’ll take you to castles, haunted cemeteries and battlefields. I’ll take you on the back roads where we’ll taste fresh apple cider and stay in the oldest inn in America. Here’s the first in a four part series on the Hudson Valley. Grab a cup of coffee, sit back and read on!

Breakfast in Carmel

I’m sitting outside, I can’t hear the crackling of the fire in a large fireplace. I have my cup of joe and waiting for my breakfast. It’s a beautiful day even with the overcast. I’m about an hour from home and it feels like another world. On this trip I’m eating at the Village Corner California Bistro.

After this huge breakfast I will NEED to take a long walk along the beach…. 😉

Moss Beach Coastal Farmers Market

IMG_9687.JPG I just left the Moss Beach harbor area and about 2 minutes south is a fabulous farmers market. Packed with local produce and very reasonable prices it’s worth the stop. You’ll find baby bananas…
