_Leaving our hometown of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and moving to upstate New York to open a bed & breakfast has been an adventure. Our blog - A View from the Porch - is a place where we share those stories.

Click on A View from the  Porch to read our experiences of country living, our Amish neighbors, running a bed & breakfast, birds and birdwatching, and many other subjects. All the stories are categorized by topics and also by date.  We hope you enjoy reading them!
