    Six Great American Wine Country Harvest Getaways | Travel News from Fodor's Travel ... Page 1 of 7 Six Great American Wine Country Harvest Getaways Posted by Fodor's Guest Blogger on August 21, 2012 at 11:05:55 AM EDT Posted in Wine & Cocktails Tagged: Wine, Winery, California, Washington, New York, Virginia, Texas, Michigan By Jordan Simon There are few more glorious times of year than autumn in wine country: Pickers combing the gold-and-green fields, warm weather with a hint of chill, the scent of both ripe and fermenting grapes the air. Harvest features fall-focused fairs, food, music, and activities to suit all tastes, budgets, and even ages (wineries increasingly feature kid-friendly activities). Plus wine regions often occupy historic areas, with burgeoning arts scenes and activities aplenty for adrenaline junkies from hot-air ballooning to dirt biking. Yet the best time to visit, mid-September to late October, is also the busiest for winemakers; Napa and Sonoma are swarmed with visitors on fall weekends. Fortunately, all 50 states now produce wine (pineapple sparkler from Hawaii?) in such prime real estate as Virginia's Shenandoah Valley, the Texas Hill Country, and New York's trendy Long Island East End. We're toasting six wine regions—with tips on lodging, dining, and even the best bottles—heating up the grapevine. Remember that some wineries offer tastings or tours by appointment only. California: Mendocino For many, Mendocino County conjures images of rugged coast and vaulting redwoods, not neatly trellised vines. But nearly 100 wineries craft an astonishing range of wines over 10 appellations.

  • Cultural Resources: Historic and Archaeological Page 1 of 22
    Chapter 7: Cultural Resources: Historic and Archaeological Page 1 of 22 •,>• 7. Cultural Resources: Historic and Archaeological 7.1 Definitions of Terms Before one can develop a more complete understanding of cultural resources, it is important to understand the nature of these resources and the terms used in pertinent sections of the Central Pine Barrens Plan. Accordingly, the following terms used in this section are defined as follows: Aboriginal - Pertaining to native inhabitants (i.e., the original Native American inhabitants of Long Island). Adaptive Reuse - The retrofitting and preservation, as opposed to destruction, of an historic structure for a new purpose, (e.g., the use of an historic residence or for an office.). rchaeological Resources - Material remains of past habitations or activities which may be below or ove ground. Cultural resource - As defined by the National Park Service in its "Cultural Resources Management Guidelines," cultural resources are: Those tangible and intangible aspects of cultural systems, both living and dead, that are valued by or representative of a given culture or that contain information about a culture . .. and [they] include but are not limited to sites, structures, districts, objects and artifacts, and historic documents associated with or representative of peoples, cultures, and human activities and events, either in the present or in the past. Cultural resources also can include the primary written and verbal data for interpreting and understanding those tangible resources. As commonly defined, these may be archaeological (that is, found beneath the surface) or above-ground resources. hese may include, but are not limited to: * 1. Components of structures and features (houses, mills, piers, fortifications, earthworks, ditches and mounds, roads, etc.).

  • The Peconic Bay Shopper • Preserving Local History • June 2012 —————————————————————
    14 ————————————————————— The Peconic Bay Shopper • Preserving Local History • June 2012 ————————————————————— Continued from page 9... Dogfish were pestiferous bait stealers, and also the horrid-looking sea robins.” In late summer there were “gamey fighting bluefish.” In later years Mrs. Newell recalled that the Bay became a “Mecca for hundreds of ardent fishermen from western Long Island and the city.” She even went on to say that those who visited that did their fishing would say, “Oh, I’ve been out fishing from New Suffolk!” In A Rose of the Nineties, Rosalind Case Newell wrote that the Peconic Bay pounding seas actually piled rows of seaweed along the beach. The windrows would include hundreds of escallops. She continued saying that the New Suffolk shore was lined with little grey-shingled escallop houses. The dredging, opening and shipping of escallops was an industry that was employed by many of the locals. Here’s a recipe for success with good ingredients as taken from the pages of Rose Remembers by Rosalind Case Newell: Dry escallops well in a cloth. You’ll have to change it once or twice. “A piece of old cotton sheet or whatever is much better than paper towels.” Crush 12 or more saltines to a coarse powder with a rolling pin. Saltines are tastier than bread crumbs. Beat one egg in a soup dish with a fork (not a beater). Cut small slices as thin as you can from a strip of fat back with a very sharp knife with enough pieces to cover the bottom of the pan. The fat back will slice easier when frozen.
