which had enough foliage and sunbeams to fill an instagram feed. Nyack Beach State Park nysparks.com/parks/156/details.aspx Where to Eat Any food lover with a sugar tooth knows that dessert comes before a good meal, so on our way into town we stopped at Pie Lady and Son. Around for 18 years, they just expanded their shop to have separate baking premises. We legitimately sat on a flower-filled porch, with an iced pitcher of sun tea and ate some of the best pie slices I have ever had. Between the small town, eating peach walnut pie, and staring at the house with the giant American flag on it felt like true Americana. That is until the bee that chased us off the porch took his space back. Pie Lady 366 N. Highland www.pielady.com All of the photo taking and fantasizing about living in the suburbs left me a bit famished for something savory, so we decided to try Turiello’s Pizza. Familyowned since 1967, they even make their own bottled sodas. Black cherry? Yes, please. The pizza was amazing and true to its Brooklyn heritage. Turiello’s 76 Main Street www.turiellospizza.com Nyack is a lovely day trip that is accessible by car, train or bus. Buses are available from Port Authority, and Metro north runs out of nearby Tarrytown. The drive up—depending on traffic—is pretty and quick—though a car is unnecessary, as Nyack is small, and everything is within walking distance. OCTOBER 2014 | BOROMAG.COM | 23
