Out to the West of Chester

Katie and I spent some of last weekend out in Westchester County with Teresa, visiting her cutie little hometown. It was so nice to get out of the city for the day, and we ended up staying the night due to the huge storm that blew through. We had a blast exploring the neighboring area. Here are some highlight from our trip:

Stone Barns - a huge, fully functional farm out on the Rockefeller property (or what was part of it). Beautiful greenhouses, animals everywhere, and a phenomenal restaurant that uses what the farm produces for its meals.

Inside the greenhouses

The poppa pig - he was almost twice the size of the other pigs.



We drove all around the area, looking at the homes, which are massive and gorgeous. We also saw the Clinton's house, Vanessa Williams' house, and a whole street with homes built by Frank Lloyd Wright.
