Tappanzee Bridge ~> Tarrytown ~> Sleepy Hollow
August 2nd, 2022 by Mr. C
We rode over the Tappanzee Bridge pathway once again and explored the waterfront area in Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow. After riding over the bridge and into the local streets of Tarrytown, I do have to say riding on Broadway was pretty sketchy. There’s a lot of cars on a pretty high speed road and not […]

July 31st, 2022 by Mr. C
We made a little frisbee golf excursion the other day to check out the 18 hole course at Warwick Town park. I believe this park & disc golf course has been around for at least 15 years maybe even longer. Any regulars at Warwick please chime in! This course goes through woods and back onto […]

Run, Walk, Bike, Explore the Tappanzee Bridge path
July 24th, 2022 by Mr. C
—————————————————————————————————————- A few weeks ago we cycled over the Tappanzee Bridge multi use path for the first time and it was amazing! This pedestrian path opened in 2020. I would never have dreamed that we could do this as the old Tappanzee Bridge, there were no walk or bike paths. The original Tappanzee bridge opened […]

Kenny Scharf : When Worlds Collide (2020)
December 24th, 2021 by Mr. C
———————————————————————————————————– This movie was an inspiring look into the life & art world of Kenny Scharf! We’ve always enjoyed the murals painted by him when we randomly stumbled across them while combing the streets of the dirty NYC. His art seemed to bring all his painted subjects to life even the inanimate ones! I had […]

Dreaming of a Jewish Christmas (2017) – a musical documentary
December 18th, 2021 by Mr. C
This documentary was a fun take on how Jewish Americans have taken a tradition not their own & created something they can call their own encapsulated with song, dance, & chinese food!? I’m not Jewish but I have some friends who are (sounds like a racist intro) and if I shine a bright light in […]

I was familiar with John Liu from his work in Secret Rivals & Secret Rivals 2 aka Northern Fists – Southern Kicks which was considered a second rate / second tier produced old school Kung Fu film as opposed to films from high budget movie studios like Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest. That being said […]

November 18th, 2021 by Mr. C
Fanny: The right to rock is an inspiring look at an unsung all female rock band from the late 60s who were not a household name but should of been. Fanny paved the path for the future of lady female rockers to come. They were the first all female rock band to release an LP […]
