There is an interesting piece of open space between Theo Fremd Road and the train track, and Interstate 95. You can only access it by going through a pair of tunnels if you park near the Con Ed offices. It was formed, I guess, when the highway bisected the cemetery.
Maybe this is a place for a dog run? It's large and grassy and almost totally cut off from the rest of Rye. I think there's something of a pond there.
If the city of Rye is looking for an alternative to dogs in the park, maybe this would work. I can't tell if the City owns the property, or if the cemetery still does.
Harrison Wants All Dogs To Be Huskies
Recently dog owners in Rye have been up in arms after a temporary experiment allowing Rye dogs to go off leash at Rye Town Park was abondoned (if you need to know how dog owners feel, read 10 year old Olivia Batal's letter to Rye's Mayor). Harrison is taking advantage of all the howling. Opene...

Saxon Woods, Mamaroneck: Who's That Tripping Under My Bridge?
The lonely cinder path under the Hutchinson River Parkway runs alongside the river. The path is also a bridle trail. Unreal boulders on the yellow trail at Saxon Woods. Saxon Woods is an urban forest that shows lots of wear and packed earth. Look out for the green pond! Go... Continue reading

Beach Near Edith Read Sanctuary in Rye, New York
The beach is one of the few places where Wolf will show up in any kind of photography. He is not really this wonky-eyed; it's the panorama camera what's done it to him. Sometimes we stick close to home. This deserted-looking beach is a little over a mile from the... Continue reading

Clark Preserve, Pound Ridge: Thoreau is a Vandal!
Kiosk at the head of the trail, Clark Preserve, Pound Ridge. "IN WILDNESS IS THE PRESERVATION OF THE WORLD - THOREAU". Who? We really like mud and running water. Clark Preserve was a little on the dry side, although there was plenty of mud on the riverbanks. It looks like... Continue reading
