What you should know: if you have a fireplace or plan to have one installed, or if you enjoy outdoor fireside evenings around the fire pit, you should contact Dan at the Bearded Cordsman. He will consult with you about what kind of wood would be the most effective for your situation. For example, I have a one year-old wood-burning fireplace insert which can only take wood of certain lengths. Every time DAN delivers to me, he is cognizant of that. I have enjoyed my fires so much this year. In addition to them being heat efficient, they are a pleasure with the beautiful wood that Dan has provided to me. His pricing is fair. His service is impeccable. You want to do business with with him. He is so kind and nice.

Spewing racially charged comments towards the residents. Called on to report this conduct and ended up falling on deaf ears. Today, as I drove down Main St in Poughkeepsie. I observed two workers unloading a service truck gawking and woofing. At what could've been a 20-25 year old young lady. From my window I yelled " get back to work" in reply I believe I heard a vulgar response. I from that time and for the following hour was bounced around on calls to file a report.

While part of the F. D. R. National Historical site in Hyde Park, a visit to Top Cottage requires…read morethe purchase of an additional ticket, a parks service provided bus ride (included in the Top Cottage ticket price) and about 90 minutes total commitment to see it. (About an hour at the cottage and the remainder bus time) For some or all of those reasons, many folks do not have Top Cottage on their list of things to do when visiting the FDR site. That is a shame because for four of us visiting the FDR site earlier this month, Top Cottage was one of the highlights. Not only of the F.D.R. site but of the three days we spent in the Hudson River Valley. Highly recommended! Built during his second term of office, Top Cottage is where Roosevelt would "escape the mob" (although you'll learn that neither he nor anyone else over nighted here during his time as President) to recharge his spirit. FDR also entertained visiting dignitaries here - like the King and Queen of England for the famous "hot dog picnic". Sadly, after FDR's death one of his sons and his wife moved into Top Cottage and it was eventually sold to settle the son's divorce, then sold again and only came into the possession of the Park' service in the late 1990's (?). It opened to the public in 2001. At Top Cottage you'll be able to browse around the inside on your own and if it is a nice day you'll have the great pleasure of sitting out on the same back porch as did FDR, Winston Churchill and others and listen to the wind and watch the same hills in the distance. It's easy to understand why Roosevelt felt his spirit revived by time spent there. And if you are very fortunate you will have Bob to drive the Top Cottage bus (such a nice guy) and remarkable "Ranger Charlotte" leading the tour. (That's her providing a wonderful tutorial on the Top Cottage porch in one of our photos.) You can find more information about Top Cottage at the National Parks service web page listed here. http://www.nps.gov/hofr/planyourvisit/top-cottage.htm If you're in Hyde Park, treat yourself and visit it. (Open daily from May through October.) Only a few tours (maybe four?) are offered daily and only a limited number of people (maybe 16?) are permitted on each tour. So just as Roosevelt used Top Cottage to "escape the mob", that's also true for those who tour it now. A tip: After riding the bus up, you'll have an option to ride the bus back to Wallace Center the FDR site or walk down a forest path to Valkill when weather permits.

Excellent spot. 1)…read moreThis is FDR's retreat during his presidency. 2) Also known for the famous visitors such as Churchill. 3) The tour is nice, and you can sit and touch most of the stuff inside. 4) I would not say to put this on top of your to do list, it is something is you saw the other 4 spots and just want to get this out the bucket list.

This is more of a character testimonial, than your standard review…read more Recently moved back to the Hudson Valley after a bunch of time in the nonprofit sector in PA, Marco and I had been friends and had worked together previously. He had been encouraging me to move back up as I have had a few losses and it has been a difficult time. Marco hooked me up with me some work immediately so I could stand on my feet and volunteered his time to help clear a space on a farm for me to live. It is a small production farm with a supportive and wonderful community that is definitely under-resourced. He routinely finds useful stuff to repurpose which he passes on and is always open to a question or conversation trying to solve a problem. Most recently, things slowed back down again and I ran out of firewood, he gave me a cord and a half from his personal stock to last me the rest of the winter and told me not to worry about it and that I could just come split some more in the spring time to restock his shed. I don't really have words for how thankful I am and how it would've been easy for him to say as a friend hearing my woes, wow that sucks, and then keep it moving, but that's not the type of person he is. Marco and I have had a decade long relationship that spans employer, mentor, friend, volunteer, accountability partner, general life coach. Because of his encouragement and guidance, I have launched a small business and have been building capacity here at the farm. Anyone looking to hire Marco should know they are bringing an A1 person, experienced problem solver, and a damn good operator into their endeavor. Be well. Travel light.
