Hawthorne, New York We've paused at the Hawthorne Receiving Manhole, a Westchester
County facility where we can empty our holding tanks. Not
surprisingly, New York City is not oriented toward the needs
of motor homes, and locating a dump station has been part
of the urban adventure.

Armonk, New York The place to be on a crisp fall morning in Westchester
County is Schultz's Cider Mill in Armonk. An old fashioned
donut machine is working overtime to keep a long line of
weekend regulars happy, and nobody is leaving without a
jug of cider and a basket of apples. We've got a big bag
of winesaps to munch on as we drive through the last of
the autumn leaves.

Katonah, New York We're exploring Westchester County and realizing that
autumn is drawing to a close. Most of the trees are bare
now, and the breeze is definitely brisk. Later we'll have
to climb up on the roof and pull the down jackets and winter
boots out of the storage pod.

the best!

Pleasantville, New York
Yes, we're still in Pleasantville, taking an extra day to
write and catch up with the box of mail we received yesterday.
Mail reaches us every two weeks or so, which means there's
always a lot to deal with!

Holbrook, New York After stopping in Sleepy Hollow to visit the Old Dutch
Church made famous in Washington Irving's "The Legend
of Sleepy Hollow," we drove through New York City and
halfway out Long Island. We'll spend the next few days exploring!
