What’s Up Peekskill? Autumn begins.

Leave a comment


Looks like it’ll clear up and be a nice early autumn weekend. Just in time, too, as Trinity Cruises (see link at bottom) is now offering Fall Foliage cruises. There’s Lego building at the Library and lots of live music. So get c’mon down and, as Confusius says (probably) – Peekskill Rocks.

What’s Up Peekskill? Is summer really over?

Leave a comment


Hello Peekskill! Do you have those back to school blues? Summer’s over, pal, get over it. Not so easy you say? Well, then get on downtown and visit your favorite watering hole and enjoy some live music. That should help.

What’s Up Peekskill? Hurricane Humidity

Leave a comment


There’s a woodworking event down at Dain’s Lumber all weekend, Jefferson Starship at the Paramount, mad science at the library, the other usual Peekskill shenanigans, and a Hurricane named after my grand mother pushing more of that dreaded humidity up here (yuk!).
