My family and I visited Patty’s Place several times last year and we made it a point to return thanks to their excellent homemade bread. The staff and customers are very nice and the downtown shops are fun to explore.

Eating at Ray’s Restaurant – Canandaigua, NY
Welcome to a little series of videos from our trip to Canandaigua, NY.
We returned to the Finger Lakes area and revisited a place we really enjoyed last year – Ray’s Restaurant. We actually went a few times during our stay and the family was not disappointed.
Sony Camera Microphone Battle!
House Tour – New Paltz, NY Vacation Rental
When we visited the Mohonk Mountain House earlier this month, we rented a house in New Paltz so we could bring the dog (yes we rented a room to get access to the resort and a house).
The house was really nice, as was the down town area of New Paltz. I highly recommend the area and supporting the local businesses.
Recommendations:
- Hiking at the Mohonk Preserve
- Schatzi’s Pub (Ben loved this place and they are dog friendly!)
- Main Street Bistro (Great breakfast, very friendly waitresses)
Hiking at the Mohonk Mountain House
My family visited the Mohonk Mountain House in early July. We enjoyed the hiking trails, the food, and the overall vibe of being in the mountains for a few days.
This video covers a hike up to the skytop tower and shows off the recently updated rooms at the resort.

Take Your Sony ZV-1 to the Next Level
The Sony ZV-1 is a great little camera. But there are some ergonomic issue that arise due to its size.
One of my biggest gripes was the placement of the tripod mounting area so close to the battery door forcing you to remove a tripod or mounting plate if you need to get access to the battery.
But SmallRig has a solution that not only addresses the access issue but gives you a better grip without dramatically increasing the size.
This is an absolute game changer!
