Out and About

It’s the Spooky Season!

As you no doubt know—or, if you’re new, you’re learning fast—Sleepy Hollow and Tarrytown take Halloween seriously. Decorations have been going up since the first of the month. One that caught Ed Lannert’s eye was a display in the wonderful Bakehouse that now occupies the Tarrytown train station.

Bakehouse is Halloween-devoted along with the rest of the towns. They are offering pumpkin-shaped cookies that come with do-it-yourself frosting apparatus and a slew of Halloween-oriented cookies of myriad shapes, sizes, and decoration.

Kendalites Conquer Kykuit

Recently a sturdy band of Kendalites toured the mansion, art galleries, and gardens of Kyuit, the Rockefeller home in Pocantico Hills, built by old John D. and lived in by his children and grandchildren, including Nelson Rockefeller, longtime governor of New York.
