Living in the valley



It was a very chilly but very sunny drive home from a really great dinner with family in Greene (and yes, there is a family connection with the name of the village). I stopped by to visit Stephanie, Zuzu, and Jasper today in Endicott, so decided to take Rt 17C home instead of the highway, and then took the valley road to my house. Halsey Valley is around 15 miles long, winding north/south, and the prettiest place you can imagine. There are pockets of wealth and pockets of poverty--a snapshot of America from end to end. The creek that wanders through it makes me long for a plastic kayak or poke boat to explore.

Someday.

Post Note: Oh, good lord, Google Street View actually found its way down Halsey Valley Road last fall. At least they didn't do my side road. How creepy.
