    5 Beautiful Things

    BY:Andrew

    The Painted Room In my grandparents’ former home, there was a sitting room at the back of the house where I used to love to spend time. It was filled with all kinds of houseplants, books and magazines. On a large wooden cabinet sat an old radio and on the walls were paintings of all [...]

      Tales From The Crypt The bearded man led us down the porch steps and onto the lawn, his boots crunching through an icy layer of snow, which had begun to fall the moment he mentioned the crypt in the backyard. With its frozen tears, the sky wept down upon us as we got closer [...]

    5 Beautiful Things

      “See the geese in chevron flight Flappin’ and a racin’ on before the snow They’ve got the urge for going And they’ve got the wings so they can go” This excerpt from Joni Mitchell’s 1967 song “Urge for Going” has been traveling the circuits of my mind for days now. Above my head, each [...]

    Haunted Houses

    BY:Josh and Brent

    When you drive around Otsego and Schoharie Counties you see lots of evidence of the area’s history.  As one of the first “settled” parts of a young country, remnants of the growth of America march right along with you.

    Same Old Story

    BY:Josh and Brent

        Two people happen across an old farm in upstate NY and fall in love with it. They figure out how to turn a piece of history into a flourishing new business. They become home décor icons.
