I grew up in Wassaic and spent a lot of time with the other kids in that town, hanging out around there. I was living in one of the houses close to the train tracks and remember when they brought in Metro again. We could be in the kitchen and see the faces of passangers on the train because we were that close. The red building that was at the Y sits right over top of that little creek. We fished off that bridge but my favorite was when that was a little store. The wooden floor had a knot that fell out. As a young kid we'd be on our hands and knees with our eye held to the floor watching the water flow under us. 😂 There are still so many historic buildings there and its been very unchanged in 30 years as far as removing or adding buildings. As a teenager, I worked at Four Brothers, then on to what was Grand Union. I was there through their changes from G.U. to Food Town and then Fresh Town. I graduated from Webutuck in 2003. It's s been a long time since I've been back but Wassaic/Amenia will always hold a special place in my memories. Thanks for taking the drive. I know those roads like the back of my hand and I didn't realize how much I missed seeing this scenery. ❤
So green and beautiful I lived in the Adirondacks for 4 years I'm in San Diego now it's so completely different I do miss New York though. Got to do a drive in the peak fall colors
Sorry to hear that!! I wasnt born there, i was born in a different town in new york state, Nowhere, New York Nothing there either, just like here! Oh ya, high property taxes!
You could have made the video much more interesting if you could slow down (as the comment above suggests), even stop occasionally and let us read some of the signs. My grand-daughter lives in Amenia and I would have liked to see more of that community, but with your high speed driving ( I'll just forget it). We can see the same country anywhere in central and western New York

Brings back old memories 😌
All those years when I was a kid in Beacon, we never got to Amenia. Lovely place, especially in the spring. Thanks.
