Screwed up our schedule, so instead of being in Cobleskill tomorrow, I'm in Cobleskill on Thursday, which means I'm at this Cooperstown hotel all day tomorrow. And I guess I've got a ton of work to do, but I suppose I could kill some time walking around town. Wonder if they have anything interesting here.

I loved walking around Cooperstown. Lotsa little shops. Doubleday Field is a must see. Nice place to walk even without a destination in mind. I was there last in the early 90's, but I imagine it hasn't changed much.

The Glimmerglass Opera is great and all, but it would be a lot more... well... complete if they got down off their high horse and allowed in amplification, elaborate costumes and other performance enhancers.

The shopping there is a collector's paradise.

Yes, exactly. I got a lil lost in it. Lil bit. Found unopened packs of 74 Topps in one card shop. I was a little dubious but one of my brothers got a Nolan Ryan. OE: and a Steve Carton in the same pack.

Otesaga Hotel or Cooper Inn per chance...

See the Hall. If you have time for a meal & nice beer, hit the Ommegang Brewery about 10 miles or so away.

Well, duh. I'm staying down near the Ommegang. It's only open for lunch, though, so last night I had dinner at the Council Rock Brewery, which is a tiny little place on 28, and was really impressed. No bottles, no growlers even... just by the glass. But really good. Might wind up there again tonight; we'll see where the day takes me. Have to actually get some work done at some point too.

We also ate at Council Rock. In terms of investment, its the exact opposite of Ommegang although it is nice enough. There were a few too many flies buzzing arounnd the dining room the day we went.

Interesting. I noticed the flies thing too.

There's the one little funky place right by the park in the town center, and I don't remember what it's called, but it's a nice one, with some atmosphere and nice bistro fare.
