An afternoon drive through the Mohawk Valley "bread basket" makes you understand why the Native People, then the European settlers, and recently the Amish, chose to settle on the banks of the Mohawk River. Take a day trip through Canajoharie, Palatine Bridge, and Stone Arabia sometime, you will certainly feel the heritage of our ancestors and understand why this area became the subject of so many paintings.
Thanks for traveling with us, Sharry & Lance

Just before Eagle Bay on the left hand side is the trail head to Bubb Lake. This nice 10-15 minute trail to a quiet lake continues to Sis Lake. Gary VanRiper explains the advantage of having trail maps to plan your hike. ADK Trails West Central Region is available at most local book stores.
Next week: Canajoharie and Palatine Bridge
Last summer when we visited Canajoharie, our series was interrupted by a major flood. We wanted to return this year to see how the downtown has recovered and to visit the new museum. The Arkell Museum at Canajoharie opened last month and several thousand people have visited and downtown Canajoharie has been beautifully restored with many shops taking the opportunity to improve their storefronts.
Visitors to the museum will discover paintings by American artists such as Winslow Homer, Childe Hassam, Robert Henri, Maurice Prendergast and Georgia O'Keeffe on display in the galleries. Mohawk Valley history and Beech-Nut advertising are also featured in new exhibitions.
You can see the Arkell sign from the highway as you head East from Utica.
Bartlett Arkell, founder of Beechnut, wanted to share his American art collection with the community. Many pieces in his collection are of the Mohawk Valley.
Diane Forsberg, Chief Curator
When you enter the museum, you will be walking on a great map of the Mohawk Valley painted into the concrete floor.
Bring the family to the museum today!
Today, will cell phones and blue tooth technology, we take communication for granted. Malio tells us of the time when alarm boxes were mounted on corner telephone poles, and you would drop in, or expect you neighbors to, unannounced.
Melissa Countryman-Davidson is a graduate of the Culinary Institute and brought her skills back to her hometown. Melissa's is open for breakfast and Lunch Tues-Fri. located on Main Street next to the Post Office. Phone 518 673-2100
Robyn and Michael Lapi's belief in eating local foods has carried over into their restaurant, Church & Main. From naturally raised meats to organic vegetables and dairy products, most of their ingredients come from a 20-mile radius of Canajoharie. Church & Main is open for dinner Thurs-Sun. reservations encouraged 518 673-2433
Palatine Bridge and Stone Arabia
Just over the bridge, is the Town of Palatine. We travelled up Route 10 North to a dead end road called Kilts. It is the private property of Willis "Skip" Barshied. He has restored a Dutch barn from the 1700s and maintains the property with veneration for the Mohawks and Palatines who lived and died there
The Stone Church on
Route 10 was erected
in 1788. There will be a service for the upcoming Veterans Day
Kanatsiohareke Mohawk Community
Dating back as early as the 12th century, the Mohawk Valley has been home to the Kanienkehaka. Driven out during the European conflicts of the 1700s, the Native People of the Mohawk Valley have re-established a community on their ancestral homeland. The Kanatsiohareke Mohawk Community has a gift shop that is open every day call 518 673-2534.
Feature Artist -Lorraine Van Hatten, watercolor
Lorraine's work reflects her love of the outdoors. She and her husband enjoy hicking, kayaking, and mountain biking in the Adirondacks and throughout the United States. You can see her work in the upcoming show in the Central New York Watercolor Society show at the Kirkland Art Center in Clinton Nov. 14 - Dec. 5, 2007.
This Dutch barn was built in the late 1700s. It is located in an idyllic setting on Kilts Road.
