Honeycrisp apple

In a recent article at LoHud.com New York’s Lower Hudson Valley, apples were the topic.  Can you say delicious, that’s all I could think of while reading.   New York State has been growing apples for the past 400 years.  I thought about my neighbors in Hudson Valley and Central New York.

It will be a beautiful day for a drive through the neighborhood soon with the fall leaves preparing to to display their glory.

The moral of the story, White Plains NY is a great location to start any day trip from.
