7 Places To Go In Westchester County, NY

Living in Westchester County in New York all my life, I have explored many times what it has to offer. Being in Eastchester specifically, there is not much to do since it is a small town. Many times my friends and I would want to do something and we end up driving around because we can't find something to do. As I became more of an independent driver, I started to venture out and find new places that I could enjoy for different things. Here are 7 places that I have found to be worth visiting in Westchester County. These are only suggestions and there are many other places to visit, but I haven't visited them yet.

1. Slave To The Grind- Bronxville

Literally the cutest coffee shop in the world. If you want a chill, laid back place to come meet up with friends, this is the place you have to take a trip to. Oh and the coffee is actually reallllly good.

2. Ridge Hill- Yonkers

This mall has everything you need without the need to go to a million separate places. Movie theater, clothing stores, restaurants and so much more. Good for a rainy day with covered walkways or to walk around outside on the sunniest of days. It is extremely kid friendly and another great hangout place.

3. Playland Amusement Park- Rye


No matter what age you are, this is one place to go to have extreme fun. Having a beach, water park, and regular amusement rides, you can spend a full day here and never run out of fun things to do.

4. New Roc City- New Rochelle

Another great little fun mall, including a movie theater, resturants, and other fun activites like bowling and glow in the dark mini golf. This is a great place to hang with friends or family outing. Either way, a great place to visit and have fun.

5. Central Avenue- Yonkers

This whole strip is just bound of endless possibilities. Places to eat and shop for all different things. When you are in need of anything, going down this road can bring you to multiple places that will help you find what you need.

6. Wilkens Farm- Yorktown

This farm is a must in the fall in Westchester County. Apple cider donuts, apples, and hayrides are going on all the time. What more can you ask for?

7. House of Sports- Ardsley

This place is very close to my heart. A fantastic sport facility including lacrosse, soccer, basketball, volleyball, baseball, softball, and hockey. This is the place to come train, have fun, and potentially become the best athlete you can.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
