Watkins Glen State Park

He has been a teacher for many years with an interest in materials, the human body, and craft, values he brings to every project in which he is involved.

The project we're talking about today is the Century Bridge Project in Watkins Glen State Park at Watkins Glen, New York.

But before we get started, don't forget to take a look at the project photos and drawings as you listen along.

At Watkins Glen State Park, the journey through the gorge is as much about the senses as it is about movement.

Visitors pass between towering rock walls, waterfalls, moss-covered paths, and shifting pools, with the geology and ecology of the gorge continually shaping the experience.

The new century bridge builds on the long tradition of crafted structures while creating a new gateway into the landscape.

It'll have a five million dollar purse that is the highest on tour outside of the majors and the CME Group Tour Championship.

On a side note, for anyone planning to attend The Classic in Corning next year, my family took a short trip there over the summer, and both the Corning Museum of Glass and the Watkins Glen State Park are must-see attractions.

But I digress.

The LPGA is also extending its stay in Hawaii next year, adding a new event, the Nanea Cup, and moving its existing tournament, the Lotte Tournament, to the famed Plantation Course at Kapalua.

yeah find

myself in binghamton with nothing to do so me and my wife went out and uh checked out watkins glen state park we hadn't been there before so we went up in the in the gorge at watkins glen

So there's just a ton of wine.

wineries you're into wine tasting and that type of thing they are definitely definitely known for that they do a lot of tours and everything every winery you will go into they have a tasting prepared they're just ready for that so you can sit down you know what are tasting that the servers come out they explain every wine to you it's very very nice a lot of fun some have different wine pairings and stuff like that but we also found a couple cool breweries and just other vibey places that were a lot of fun live music that type of stuff And they're also known for the Watkins Glen State Park, which in itself.

So, again, same type of thing.
