What to do on a rainy day in Otsego County? Explore Cooperstown, of course. We first thought of the National Baseball Hall of Fame and that it was the hometown of a high school friend so that’s where we headed. Found some on street parking and walked the couple of blocks to enjoy a pleasant couple of hours immersing ourselves in the history of America’s pastime. Then on the recommendation of our campground host, we lunched at the Hawkeye Grill at The Otesaga on the shore of Otsego Lake or Glimmerglass in the novels of James Fenimore Cooper. There’s much more to explore here on another sunnier day.
Winter Magic in Medina
By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
