Welcome to "Sunnyside" once home to the writer Washington Irving. This lovely spot lies on the Hudson River in Irvington, NY. I have enjoyed many a trip to this oasis. The fall is always a lovely time to visit this home as Mr. Irving wrote "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow."

September 28th is a day full of children's books, where many authors and illustrators gather.
Children love this day, and I think Mr. Irving must be loving it too. Visit
here.

It's funny.... one doesn't usually think of "Sunnyside" when mentioning The Legend of Sleepy Hollow!
How fun this day must be for the young and the young at heart!
Patricia do you show your Illustrations at this event too?
I love the house! Do you get to peak inside?
Next time I'm there I have to visit -the picture of this place were CHARMING!
I think a day trip to Sunnyside should be on our list this fall. Up for it bud?
We'll be at children's book day. We never miss it, except if you count the year I was in the hospital after giving birth to my son. See you there?
I can't wait to go on the 28th! Our neighbor, Leslie Kimmelman, is a children's writer and she will be there.
This is my dream home. An American fairy-tale cottage!
That house is something. How beautiful and mysterious! It definitely looks like the perfect place to write the Legend of Sleepy Hollow.
It looks like a home for an imaginative person to dwell.
yet another place to visit if I ever make it eastward...
What a beautiful facade.
what a cozy place, you wouldn't think of its setting being here in the U.S.A.- Sleepy Hollow, one of my childhood favorites. :)
It looks simply magical!!
That's the kind of house that I conjure up in my mind as the perfect house. Mysterious and charming.
Oh....I went here on a 5th grade class trip and loved it then!! Imagine how much I'd love it now that I'm grown up and stuff. :-)
You are right this is really a lovely spot.
