Jpstate NY

[NBMisha]

The DC trip idea in Sept is morphing into upstate NY. We were at Bard last weekend for a kid thing and, well, the Hudson valley, Catskills, etc are just beautiful this time of year. Rural, laid back, yet nice.

Anyway, any of you NY folks know anything about how to get a weeks worth of rest and solitude in this area. Nice place on a lake, bike rides and hikes, good eating type of experience? We're just tired and need a recharge.

Lake George in the Adirondacks. Hard to imagine a more beautiful place in this country.

Mt. Marcy, the Shawagunks for rock climbing by New Paltz, whitewater rafting

Highland Falls sounds cool. At least it was a good song by Billy Joel!!!

I didn't know the Northeast had honest to goodness rednecks until I visited upstate New York.
