SUMMER IS SPECIAL AT THE BRONCK MUSEUM The arrival of summer marks the beginning of a season spanning calendar of special events at Bronck Museum. Perhaps the ...most unique of this season’s events will be the popular Bronck Family at Home series which begins on Sunday, June 22nd. This season’s tours will take place in the 1685 wing of the Bronck house. The whole 1685 wing has been undergoing much needed restoration and stabilization and has not been open for public viewing for some time. The attic of the 1685 wing has not been open for decades. As the restoration winds down we will begin the installation of a new furnishing plan which, when complete, will involve the first floor rooms of both the 1663 stone house and its 1685 wing with the goal of creating more appropriate interiors for these rooms. On one Sunday afternoon each month from June to September the public is invited to join a costumed guide on a journey through both time and space. Discover how Dutch family life accommodated cultural change over time. Take advantage of a rare opportunity to watch work in progress as the rooms are transformed into the sort of living space that would have been appropriate during the life time of Pieter Bronck’s son and grandson in the English Colony of New York. The Bronck Family at Home programs will be offered at 1, 2 and 3pm on Sunday, June 22nd, July 13th, August 17th, and September 14th. Of course there are other special events scheduled for 2014 at the Bronck Museum. Make plans to join us for an enchanted evening under the silvery August moon. Come again in the fall when the Bronck houses surrounded by the rich colors of the fall foliage provide a particularly striking setting for early October’s Heritage Craft Fair, a Dutch funeral follows in late October, and the Chilly Willy Winter’s Eve festivities in mid-November.

10 this morning at MTA. This heron probably doesn't migrate from the mangrove swamp in Sarasota, but there are herons in the West Meadow pond by mid summer. Ice should be gone by then.

Beautiful conditions at Hunter Mountain this week. Book now at Washington Irving to take advantage of the great snow!
