The Strong Museum of Play 2017

We had plans to see my friend Christie in Rochester on Saturday night. She and other people in the Finger Lakes recommended The Strong Museum for kids so we went there in the afternoon before meeting up with Christie. It was insane. I've been to some children's museums around the country, but this was the biggest, most involved, I've visited yet. Here's a biblical number of pictures.

Naples, NY 2017

We were pretty tired by Friday, so we decided to stay near the house. I had tried Hazlitt Red Cat's fun cold red wine, which is sort of sangria-like, when we were at the 3 Legged Pig, so we decided to go to the vineyard and get some wine. Afterwards we checked out Grimes Glen. And yeah, we went back to the 3 Legged Pig for dinner because it was delicious.
