A few weeks ago, Aaron and I drove up to Hudson, NY. Our goal was to look at a few houses (Aaron is currently exploring locations for a vacation home), but we ended up spending a good portion of our afternoon exploring the town's amazing shopping. Hudson has an incredible collection of home and antique stores, the majority of which are lined up along the architecturally charming, multi-colored, mile-long Warren Street. The stores are meticulously edited, but not prohibitively expensive.
Just a quick 2.5 hour jaunt from Brooklyn on a traffic-free day, it's a fantastic spot for a day trip.
Just be sure to bring your wallet. And maybe a pickup.
