They are running some truly inspiring programs there, and ALSO are renting out the facility as event space! I spoke to a women who got married there and she said it was incredible.

This place was so cool! I've always passed by it on the way to the antique mall in Salamanca, but…read moreonly recently made it a point to stop in during our weekend getaway! The museum is small, but absolutely rich with history. It was a Passenger Depot for the Buffalo, Rochester, & Pittsburgh Railway in the early 1900's. The inside of the museum still retains the look of a train station in that day, with most of the rooms still in tact! You can see where luggage was processed, where passengers would have bought tickets, and even sit and wait for trains! There are plenty of train-related relics and memorabilia that fills cases in the museum, decorates the walls, etc. There is a huge model train display in the center of the room, but it was under maintenance when we visited. What adds to the experience here is the train cars you can explore here! I've never been inside of an old train car before, and this place has several you can walk through. Some of them have old cots from where passengers would sleep, ovens and 'kitchens', closets, even toilets. It's super cool to be able to see how people would travel back in the day! I definitely recommend visiting this museum at least once, even if you're not that in to trains. But if you are, this is definitely the spot for you!

This isn't just a wine supply store. They have a huge pick-your-own cherry orchard!…read more For many years now, I have been going here with my wife and her family. It's an Independence Day tradition. I know Walkers is known nationwide for their wine juice, but the cherry orchard is vast and not to be discounted. Aside from the one year that the Amish showed up and bought the entire harvest, there is always good pickings here. Around Independence Day weekend, the trees are bountiful, especially the sours. Between the four of us, we came out with 43 pounds last year. We reigned it in and only took 27 pounds this year. We eat them fresh or freeze them to make pies throughout the year. And like all respectable farm stands, there are bored teens working the booth. It's good wholesome fun. Long Live Walkers. Pro Tip: Know that the pitting machine will only get 50% of the pits, so don't put the cherries straight into a pie. You'll need to do your own pitting run when you get home.

This is a family operation and all the employees are super friendly and helpful. Believe me, it would be easy to get impatient with us, because, while we are really nice people, we invariably get 10 varieties of juice (or more!) in 2 dozen 5-gallon carboys. It takes a while to write up our order, and quite a while to fill the carboys. Everyone is always really cheerful and they even joke around with us! Along with juices, the Walkers have fruit (baskets of grapes, apples etc), honey from their bees, and delicious fudge in 8 or so varieties! But don't ask what's in their juice blend for rose wine. It's a family secret! :) Oh, and they even ship their juice via UPS. IMPORTANT: Remember to bring cash or a check because they don't accept credit/debit cards.

For local flavor and a break from the regular weekend routine, the Ellicottville Fall Festival is…read moredifficult to beat. While in Buffalo recently, friends suggested we make the hour trek to Ellicottville to check out the festival. It's located in a small ski village, and -- never one to turn down the chance to check out a new place -- I jumped at the chance. Street parking was relatively easy to find, and we soon were meandering through the downtown at the foothills of the ski resort. With hills all around us and brilliantly color-changing leaves, it was here to beat the beautiful setting. If you know local festivals, you know what to expect -- booths with all sorts of arts, crafts, snacks, and unique local finds lined the middle of the streets, which had been closed off for pedestrian-only traffic. We perused the different booths and stores before stopping a spell for lunch. Happen to be out this way in the fall? Head on over and check it out for a relaxed afternoon in a colorful and cozy setting.

The drive down the (do I need to stop saying "the" in front of highways?) 219 was beautiful, and the weather was just the right amount of chilly to be enjoying my flannel and boots and hot apple cider. The main downside here is the traffic getting into town, but there really is nothing that can be done about it. You just have to be ready and be patient. The church just inside town was graciously offering "donation" parking (as opposed to the $10 parking further into town), and since it was on the edge of town, made it super easy to leave when we were done. The town of Ellicottville is also very charming, and I would love to come back again to enjoy the area on a normal day!
