A Day Trip from Millsburg

August in Millsburg is feeling like early fall with cool days and chilly nights.

Perfect for getting out and seeing some local sights.

On the fourty-fourth anniversary of Woodstock the Mini rolled out to Bethel for visit the site of the 1969 concert.

The  old hippies are gathered around Hectors and will no doubt enjoy a few stories and some music over the weekend.


The Catskill Mountains near Treadwell, NY was the destination for an overnight stay with LKD's sister K.

K & D hosted, we hung out on the deck and took in the awesome view.   K & D have been building trails around the top of their mountain. We enjoyed a walk in the woods.



An afternoon in Oneonta checking out a couple of farm stands and wondering why there were so many vacant storefronts in an otherwise classic downtown.  There was a day when some of these buildings dispensed cheap beers to the college crowd. The drinking age was changed at some point in the eighties and Walmart opened a shop on the edge of town.





There is a nine hole course in Roscoe.

LKD was the lucky winner of a gift certificate for a free round so on the way back from our visit with K&D we played. There are some interesting holes that go up the side of the mountain and back down from elevated tees to the small greens down below.


Feeling hungry we had lunch at the Roscoe Diner before heading back to Millsburg.

Later this week we plan on visiting a couple of country fairs. The Dutchess County Fair and the Otisville Country Fair are both happening this week.
