Woodstock

This trip was just what the doctor ordered!

Woodstock is a small and very peculiar town.  Plenty of stores to “window shop” at.  Some stores carry pretty weird merchandise, while others have the normal “souvenir” stuff.  If you like “records”, this is the town to go to.  If you like wearing second-hand funky/gothic/hippie stuff, this is definitely the town to come shop at.  I LOVE thrift stores, and this town definitely appeals to that side of me.  My favorite was Castaways in the Woods.  Lots of stuff to go through, but no doubt anybody will find something to take back home with them.



Our cabin was small, cozy and delightful. I was very happy with our stay there.  The only downside of this cabin is the shower, but taking a shower takes only about 15 minutes of your day, so this didn't make me not like the cozy place.  Rock City Writer's Studio was equipped with everything we could need on a rainy gloomy winter weekend.  HDTV, cable, DVD player, movies, board games, a sauna room, a fully equipped eat-in-kitchen.  If grilling is your thing, and I wish it hadn't been so rainy and cold so we could have taken advantage of it, the cabin comes with its very own gas grill.  This lil place was just perfect for our weekend getaway.


Now, lets talk about FOOD!


Whoever goes to Woodstock, HAS to go eat Oriole 9.  Try to get seated AWAY from the door if it's a cold day.  The food here is pretty damn delicious!  They don't have "normal" sodas or cocktails, but they do have homemade sodas -  the orange soda one was pretty refreshing!  We had breakfast here.  I had a chicken sandwich and my boo had a regular breakfast.  The french toast were delicious!


Cucina was a nice lil Italian restaurant.  The service was so nice and welcoming.  The waiter and the
bartender were also very accommodating to my "pain-in-the-ass-requests-for-getting-the-perfect-cocktail", and they DELIVERED with FLYING COLORS!  WOW was that drink amazing!  The food was pretty tasty too.


Until Spring, my dear Woodstock.  We will certainly see each other again!
