All Things Joey
To travel is to learn. Planes, Trains, and Automobiles – this category focuses on all of the trips I have taken and had the good fortune to document.
Our base of operations during our Lake George vacation was Chestertown, NY.
I like Chestertown better than Lake George proper because there are less tourists, less traffic. The house we stayed at had everything you could want in walking distance (breakfast spot, a few bars, and a grocery store).
This is some footage of us hanging around the town and at the house and hitting up our favorite local shop the Main Street Ice Cream Parlor (the owner and staff are the nicest people).
We did it again (and we will do it another time after this).
We rented a pontoon boat on Lake George and had ourselves a little adventure thanks to Lake George Island Boat rentals (shout out to Captain Dave in this video).
The weather on this day was not the best… it was grey and cold… but we made the best of it and had a good time anyway!
My family and friends booked a river tubing adventure in the Lake George Area.
The weather was nice (which wasn’t the case for most of the week) and it was a relaxing time.
We stopped by Hazlitt Winery (with Rayla the dog) to sample some local wines and ciders.
No winery tour would be complete without eating some cheeses and other treats.
I only have footage of Hazlitt, but we sampled product from:
Most of these places are dog-friendly too – which was a nice treat for Rayla.
My friends and family had the chance to rent a boat on Keuka Lake.
We coasted around, saw some awesome houses, did some swimming, and stopped at a bodega.

My friends and I hiked a few waterfall trails around the Finger Lakes (which I smooshed together in this video).
We visited:
The end of the Watkins Glen hike featured a ton of stairs which kicked our butts, but we were glad to finish it. Taughannock Falls was flat, easy, and pet friendly.
