I hike, explore and bike upstate New York. I’m a free thinker, an agnostic. I also believe in people living how they want without prejudice. Peace, love and compassion is the way to be instead of hate.

Fort Hill is rich in history. In the middle of the 16th century, the local Indians used the area as a fortified hill. Some historians believe the Cayuga Indians built the Fort for defense during the many wars that raged between the Indian tribes. After the Iroquois Confederacy was formed.

I have always heard this saying most of my life. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Makes sense seeing the way our government is now, but it better change to where the poor get richer and rich get nothing.

Camp Beechwood State Park, formerly known as the Girl Scouts of America’s Camp Beechwood is a hidden gem within New York’s vast park system. Although it remains relatively unknown to many, those who have visited can vouch for its unique blend of nature and history.

the Beddoe-Rose Cemetery lies deep in the woods of Keuka Lake State Park. Although listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this graveyard remains completely hidden and largely unknown. Sadly, many of its stones are broken, lost or otherwise severely damaged due to time.

My name is James and I explore upstate Ny. I hike, bike and show historical locations.
