Drinks & Nightlife

This is one of my local favorites. It is hidden in a basement with a mostly unmarked door and has a great speakeasy feel with wood carved walls and plenty of bourbon on the list.

Food Scene

One of my favorite hangouts both to sit down and read or do some work, and to catch up with friends. The staff are great fun and play a great variety of music. They have all the usual cafe offerings as well as great sandwiches and salads. Bonus: pool tables!

Parks & Nature

Walden is a great get-away that's very close to town. There's a good cluster of trails and refreshing swimming in the summer months. When you don't have time for a long drive for a more substantial hike, this is a great compromise since it's only about 30 min away. You can also enjoy the original site and replica of Henry David Thoreau's cabin.
