The Boys of Summer

Cooperstown

Here nestled among the green rolling hills and dew filled mornings is the center of it's past. Keeping tradition buried in innocence helps keep it in the shadows and the perfect gem for those whose ultimate journey is to find its gift. For what this place is has less to do with the physical and tangible but everything to do with preserving an experience. While many places are like this, none compare to the awesome pedigree of tradition and history for this institution. While some flock with a religious zeal others pass by what is (some say) a microcosm of metaphors for life. One thing is for sure; those who are lucky enough to find it are forever touched by it.


For those looking for direction you must start the journey from within. There is no quick way to get here. Highways and shortcuts can get you close but in order to find what your looking for each must find their own path. When you arrive you'll find lavish amenities that enrich the experience, each one customized for the individual. Time has a universal effect, so spend your time wisely, the ability for it to cast deep shadows with it's passing is a precious commodity.


For those who wish for guidance in their journey I deeply recommend you begin your search in June or July. Pick a warm day and cancel plans for the next day. Bring something to capture your moments and come prepared to have them.

George Washington Quote

we do not determine greatness by success
we determine greatness by overcoming difficulties
greatness is always formed and forged in the crucible of tension and difficulty
