It’s a wonderful spot. Actually spent quite a bit of time on that bench the day I took that photo. So glad you like it!

Thank you, Cristina! Love your photos, too—beautiful images always!
Ah, Sleepy Hollow! One of our fave places to visit. Looking forward to the Halloween activities once again–have you ever gone to any of the Historic Hudson Valley events?
Indeed, I have, Lori. I’ve loved that area since childhood, and get back there as often as I can.
Lovely framing. You have a great eye.
Thank you so much, John.
This is beautiful, Kenn!
It looks like the perfect place to just sit a while and “be.”
Thank you, Lisa. The entire park was a nature lover’s paradise.
What a glorious, refreshing photo for my eyes to see first thing on this Monday morning. Thank you, Kenn!!! Love, Amy
