Thank you, Mohonk is a beautiful and historic site. I am sure I will be posting more photos from this area. My family and I spend our Thanksgivings there. Lots of mountain hiking and wonderful food.

Oh, yes it is a hotel. It was built in the 1800 and was actually the founding site of the United Nations. Left in its original condition it has over 131 working fireplaces and no televisions. The floor creaks when you walk on it. It is very family orientated but unfortunately they do not accommodate nonworking dogs. They offer skating, mountain climbing, snow shoeing, cross country skiing, golf, swimming…well I’m starting to sound like an advertisement for them. I will post more photos from there, as I have many. You really can’t take a bad photograph there. Check out their website, www.mohonk.com
