The George Washington Bridge at Night.


One of our favorite things is coming back home after you have been away. It really does not matter how long you are gone, the comfort of your own bed is a great feeling. Depending on where you go, many times your view coming back into Manhattan is the skyline, impressive at any time of the day or night. Another view we love, is the George Washington Brigde, lit up at night. It's like a giant, industrial, beacon welcoming you home! Enjoy the journey.

A Favorite Spot


Check out the old school Claremont Hotel in Southwest Harbor, Maine. Old school means you have to dress for dinner and it's cash only. Play some tennis, go sailing, go to town for a fresh lobster roll, or just sit on one of the adirondack chairs on the lawn and take in the view. Acadia National Park is close by so you can hike Cadillac Mountain or bike ride on the old carriage trails. There is a perfect Boathouse where you can enjoy your gin&tonic before dinner and a big porch where you can hang out after dinner. We recommend the Phillips House or the Rowse House for privacy.
Enjoy your journey!
