Working on the Crossfire, Too many tasks, check the windows, check the tires, check the oil, dollar gas……..Too much monkey business fo me to be involved in.
So my wife and I drove to Angelica, NY, to Cartwright’s Maple Tree Inn where we enjoyed an “all you can eat buckwheat Pancake Breakfast”, including their famous 100% Maple Syrup.

Angelica is pretty much in the middle of nowhere located in the Western Southern Tier of NY, but that nowhere is about as scenic and beautiful as you would ever want. Miles and miles of woods, wildlife, and streams and a lot of poor little backwater towns caught up in absolutely nothing, including boarded up food processing plants and small farms.

Instead of seeing the roadside clusters of newly built sheds for sale, you find theres a market for blinds for duck, turkey and deer hunters.

………..and a thriving market for anything wood.




If I wasn’t already old, I think I’d like to retire there.

Except the winters suck.
