Day 4! Dundee!!

No, not Dundee Scotland but Dundee in upstate New York!!

Today we visited The Windmill Farm and Craft Market in Dundee, New York.  The Windmill is the first and friendliest farm and craft market in upstate New York, located in the heart of the Finger Lakes Wine Region.  It has become a premier tourist attraction, with a weekly attendance exceeding 8000-10,000 people. Now in its 26th year The Windmill plays host to nearly 200 shops.

We visited the Stoltzfus Pie shop, owned by Mennonites from New York. Simon decided he would like two apple dumplings!!!! and I bought the banana bread.

Day 3! Watkins Glen Falls, Watkins Glen, New York

Today, Natalie arrived from Pennsylvania.  For those who know me (Sandra) well, know that I’m a huge Twilight fan and Nat along with Dot are my two Twilight buddies.

The Guys 2We all took a trip to Watkins Glen Falls to hike the gorge trail and see the 19 different waterfalls. Before arriving at the falls we stopped here at Montour Falls which is a 150′ waterfall named after Queen Catharine of the Senecas.

Water has shaped the natural landscape of Watkins Glen.  During the past million years, water and glaciers have covered New York State several times transforming the land in its path.  The water we saw flowing today will take 25 years to reach the Atlantic Ocean.
