The best ice cream sandwiches ever created. Dozens of fresh cookies can be paired with your choice of ice cream to make the finest ever made. Also, scones, fudge, coffee and an incredible array of ceramics. The next-door hike up Vroman's Nose is great exercise and the perfect excuse to have as many cookies as you want.

An enormous outdoor sculpture park and indoor museum with world-class artists showing. It's incredible and the perfect way to spend a day. Its an hours drive from the house but there is plenty to do. You can go through Oak Hill on the way, or stop in the Irish town of Durham or eat at Gracies in Leeds. You drive through Hudson so you can always stop there on the way to or from OMI and antique, shop, or eat a nice meal. It's a little far for a usual excursion but totally worth it.
