I love the selection of art here - all local artists and a wide variety of prices on things from lamps, jewelry, cards, pottery, and decor. On the first Friday of each month, there is a party featuring the new artists, music and free drinks. It's a local hub for connecting and super fun. I love seeing the new available works and this is a major place to go to find unique gifts for friends or art for your own walls. Discover a new to you artist and take home a treasure.

My husband, son, and I grabbed some Taco Johns on Sunday afternoon and drove to this little park we love so much. We found a picnic table open overlooking the 94 bridge and happily ate our lunch while enjoying the view. We were right by one of the Indian burial mounds which got our son asking a few questions about it. Many others had the same idea as we did! Great little park!

We loved our first time trying Pitchfork Brewery tonight for take out! The big pretzel was soft and warm, the shredded pork pizza was super, and the veggie with garlic & rosemary infused olive oil was even better! My husband had the pulled chicken sandwich and really enjoyed that! Online ordering with pick up at their window was simple and fast. We will go again for sure!

After having an early dinner out, we decided to take a walk through the park and out onto the dike. There were a lot of people out walking solo, in twos, and with dogs. There was a lone cyclist who looked like he was sight-seeing. It was a warm Fall day with a breeze, and very nice. It was pretty quiet except for the people roaring around in a speed boat just off of the swimming beach and north of the dike. I thought that was no-wake; I could be wrong, but they could get a big ticket some time from one of the sheriff's departments. Other boats were going slow. I guess that needs to be patrolled more often! It was not safe for other small boats. Of course, there was a knot of waiting people we had to walk through to go back to our car. I don't know if Afton's dinner cruise was running late, or if they were early. The park was very neat and clean. A lot of people were enjoying it. Nice walk.

My first time to Hudson's first brewery certainly stood out from most others in its class. Hop & Barrel offers a certain atmosphere perfectly balanced between local watering hole & spur the moment stops for folks passing through busy main street. The beer menu is sure to offer everyone something to enjoy from the casual beer drinker to the beer snob wielding a waxed mustachio. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful from helping the undecided choose the perfect beverage to offering their opinion on the local food joints (of which there are many) that deliver right to your table .
