Snow in the Finger Lakes

The snow is here. Bristol Mountain is making snow hoping to open early next week. Great skiing can be found there with a 1200' vertical rise--there's even cross-country at the summit with miles of lighted trails. Check it out www.bristolmountain.com. There's a webcam on the site as well so you can actually see how much snow there is or if its even snowing! Relax in the evening after your day of skiing at one of the many lodging properties and enjoy some great local cuisine and wine. You can stop at any of the wineries along the Canandaigua Wine Trail on your way to Bristol Mountain to pick up your evening dining wines. www.Canandaiguawinetrail.com or www.VisitFingerLakes.com. Bundle up and get outdoors in the Finger Lakes this winter--there's lots to do.

Finger Lakes in the Fall

There's so much to do! I love the Finger Lakes! Scenic foliage drives, wineries, events and festivals...pick your own pumpkins--go to a farmer's market and get freshly picked fruits and vegetables. Then prepare a culinary delight. You can even take a class at the New York Wine & Culinary Center located in Canandaigua--New York State food and wine at its best! I have learned everything from flipping omelets to holiday hors d'oeuvres...a great time. I've lived here all my life and am still finding hidden treasures every day. Every season it gets better and better.
