Some hiatus!  I have not posted since the Covid lockdown two years ago!  It has been a strange time; 2020 no one was traveling, then 2021 everyone wanted to get out.  I am hoping that the worst is behind us and that we can get back to "normal!"

I have continued to visit and explore new and exciting places and attractions here in the Finger Lakes during the pandemic, and would love to share some of these experiences with you so that you can be aware of the abundance and beauty of the region, and take advantage of the opportunity to see them for yourselves.

In my role as Board member of the Yates County Chamber of Commerce, as well as President of the Finger Lakes Bed and Breakfast Association, I try to stay on top of all of the happenings and new businesses in the area.  Please feel free to go to the comment section and let me know what you would like to learn more about.  And remember, most wineries and restaurants are requiring reservations now, so it pays to plan ahead.  

Happy New Season!  I hope to see you soon at Aubergine Bed and Breakfast!

But gardening has been my passion for many years and I just love the process. Weeding to me is a form of “moving meditation.” I grow my vegetables and flowers from seed in my basement and just love that I can offer my guests homegrown berries on my homemade yogurt, fresh flowers, and omelets and frittatas made with fresh-picked veggies. I wish Penn Yan would let me raise chickens!  But fortunately the local farmers provide the very freshest eggs. I buy my meats locally, and, although on my bucket list is...

Sodus Point

Less than an hour from Aubergine is Sodus Point on Lake Ontario. You can walk on the beach at the sight of the original lighthouse and also visit the Lighthouse Museum, which is very interesting. It’s a lovely drive past lots of apple orchards and beautiful views of the lake.
