home of baseball
We just came back from four days in Cooperstown, NY, where the National Baseball Hall of Fame is and Doubleday Field is. Joe played two exhibition games against a North Carolina team. They lost one and won one. We had a great time.
If you go, there are a million things to do, ranging from the Glimmerglass Opera, the Farm Museum, Fennimore Cooper Folk Art Museum, Ommegang Brewery, Howe Caverns and exploring the cute little Main Street, which is filled with baseball memorabilia shops. I blogged about last year's trip if you want all those details.
You need to stay at the Daylily Dreams bed & breakfast if you go. We stayed in the Velvet Rose room...beautiful, affordable, and great breakfasts. I can't praise this little place enough!
And now, back to the grind. Vacations are always so short lived.

Being an ultimate baseball fan, I appreciated you comments. I've not been to Cooperstown yet, but it is in my future planning.

I vaguely remember being to Cooperstown when I was younger. Its sad because we used to drive out to Oneonta every year. My father grew up there. I have been to Howe's Cavern a few times.
We drove out there a few weeks ago for my grandfather's funeral. I am not sure if/when we will make it back. :(
