Winter at the Beach

I never tire of looking out across the Lake, even in the dead of winter. This past weekend I took the boys down to the beach to do some sledding. I say this all the time, but I love where we live. As we were sledding the ice fishermen were getting set up, cross country skiers took to the frozen Lake and snowshoers strolled across the Thomas P. Morahan Waterfront Park to check the ice conditions. Looking at this photo you would never guess we're only 50 miles out of NYC!

Fall Foliage at the Lake

Unseasonably high temperatures coupled with the bounty of the Warwick apple havest has made for an extrordinary fall. The foliage will be peaking later than ususal this year so there's plenty of time for leaf peeping. And there's no greater spot than at the Thomas P. Morahan Waterfront Park in the Village of Greenwood Lake. October always brings a parade of cars through Greenwood Lake and up and over Mt. Peter into Warwick. What many of these passersby don't realize is that a picture-perfect view awaits if they stop the car and explore Greenwood Lake before heading into Warwick. Mountains, brilliant foliage and waterfront, it doesn't get better than that.
