A couple weeks ago while attending the Chacellor's Sheep and Wool Showcase at Clermont State Historic Site  I had my first encounter with herding dogs.   Although there were sheep at this event the dogs were herding ducks, this was such a cute event.I could not have asked for a nicer setting, the Hudson River and Catskill Mountains was the backdrop.  The event thrilled both young and old.

Today was the annual Chancellor Sheep and Wool showcase at the Clermot State Historic Site.  You could not have asked for better weather, and a perfect setting.  I took an hour out of my day for a bit of fun.This event was well attended and there were a variety of vendors and activities.    The shearing of the sheep and the herding dogs demonstration were two of my favorites.Most of all I was able to spend the hour with my daughter,   We even had hot dogs which was a treat.Today was once again a reminder of how beautiful the Hudson Valley really is.

The Train track with spectacular views This train track runs along the Hudson River on what would be considered prime real estate.   If the track was being planned today I am sure it would not be located here.  The location is not likely to change so why not enjoy the spectacular views.   This track is used by Amtrak trains, and is located between the Rhinecliff  Train Station in Rhinebeck NY and The Hudson Train Station in Hudson NY.

I wonder why I could not stop thinking about a picnic?  On a recent visit to Clermont State Historic Site I couldn't help noticing all the benches and grills.  I could almost smell hamburgers and hotdogs. A picnic with a view of the Hudson River will get my attention  everytime. Read more.....

This view was observed from Clermont State Park; the majestic Hudson River, and in the background the spectacular Catskill Mountains. I can imagine sitting on one of the many picnic benches this spring and summer soaking up the views. Soon I can watch boats of all types go up and down the river. When I need a bit of alone time I find myself drawn to this spot.

Just sold  Clermont NY Contemporary 135 Shields Road Just sold Clermont NY contemporary a 5 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom house located on a private road within 5 minutes to the Taconic State Parkway. When buying a house in the Hudson Valley you might run across this situation; the address of this house is 135 Shields Road, Red Hook NY 12571. Naturally you would assume  this property is in Red Hook, not so, only the post office address.  The house is actually located in Clermont in a different County, and  that’s not all the school district is located in Dutchess County but in another town, Pine Plains.  This can be confusing but with the assistance of a Real Estate Agent you will get through the confusion.

Shields Road a neighborhood on a private road Shields Road is a neighborhood located on a private road which was once a rail road bed.  Part of the Road is in the Town of Clermont in Columbia County and the rest in the town of Milan in Dutchess County. There are a variety of homes, capes, contemporaries, ranches and logs.  It is a very small community and the HOA paid each year is used to maintain the road.   Why people love Shields Road Shields Road as I mentioned is a private road, therefore very little traffic.  For that reason it is a popular neighborhood for second home buyers, a real country retreat.

   Abandoned Bin    While I was out looking at properties I ran accrossed this abondoned bin.  It was an overcasted day an this object sat on a hill and looked like something from another time period. I called it a grain bin but later I was not sure after looking on-line and noting that alll the grain bins were made of much strong material. So what is it?

Fall is such a lovely time of year.  I just can't help myself, I see so many wonderful scenes and I just have to reach for my camera. Here are a couple photos I took in Clermont a southern town in Columbia County NY.   This photo was just down the road from my favorite barbecue stop. Although the boys enjoy my cooking once in a while they deserve a break.  Cue 2 Go is a favorite. In the background you are looking at the Catkill Mountains.   If you like what you see and is interested in exploring real estate in Clermont in Columbia County NY start your search Copyright © by Jennifer Fivelsdal, all rights reserved- Fall scenes from Columbia County NY | Clermont

    He is going to get me.Although I appreciate nature I do keep my distance when it comes to all sorts of creatures. However with a camera I sometimes get closer than I normally would.Take this frog he might think he is a beauty and I might find him interesting but I certainly would not want to come in contact with his slimy body, not to mention he looks like he is going to get me.Don’t get me wrong I do appreciate the contribution frogs make to the ecosystem and with West Nile on the rise we might even want to kiss a frog:)

    This is a mesmerizing view.   Last Thursday The Old Dutch Village Garden Club held their annual picnic at one of my favorite Hudson Valley spot, Clermont State Park.  I was not sure I could stay for the event because I don't cope well with the heat; however the locust trees provided shade and the breeze from the Hudson River gave me a needed break. The company and food made it all perfect.  Yes even Realtors need a break.

SPEECHLESS SUNDAY-HAY HAY Hay is a favorite photography subject for me because there are many farms in the area.  I just took a look at Google and it seems I am not alone.  The first time I saw a bale of hay I had no idea as to what it would be used for.  Since then I have found out how important it is to the food supply, since hay is a form of food for livestock. Hay Hay!

   The Hudson Bush Plant Sale at Clermont State Park is a one of a kind, it comes with a wonderful view of the Hudson River and CatsKill Mountains. Having attended the event in previous years I know you will find a variety of shrubs and flowers and other garden related items. It is also a good time to purchase plants for a herb garden.   If you already have one, why not add a new herb. This location is a State Park and while you are there take a tour of the historic home and gardens. The Hudson Bush Plant Sale is sponsored by Friends of Clermont Directions View Larger Map
