Currently, I am in Western NY visiting my parents. This time of the year is beautiful! Everything is in full bloom with lushes green lawns. Western NY has many things to offer for the traveler. Grapes are one of the main crops and when there are grapes, there is wine. WNY has some the most unique wineries in the US. If you are ever in the area, do your self a favor and support some of the local wineries. Also the Chautauqua Institution is a must for your WNY check list. The Chautauqua institution is a world famous establishment beginning in the late 1800s. It is one of the finest summer educational institutions in the US emphasizing in Music, Visual Arts, Dance, History,Theology and
philosophy.
