ABC's Of Warwick, New York

We may be a small town, but we offer so much more than that.

ABC's Of Warwick, New York

Just because we're a small town with a lot of cows, doesn't mean we aren't great in our own way.

A is for Apple Fest.

When we get flooded with thousands of people the first weekend of October, we can never complain because it means we get to indulge in all the things our town has to offer.

B is for Bellvale Farms Creamery.

There is a reason The Huffington Post named it the second best ice cream place in the country, and it wasn’t because of the view.

C is for CnD’s.

We don’t run on Dunkin here, we run on fresh baked bagels.

D is for summer nights at the Drive-In.

One of the best parts of summer here in Warwick, is spending your nights with good company, and a good movie under the stars.

E is for the famous Elvis Presley painting.

Seen as a landmark to the town, the mural was painted by a local artist, also showcasing Clint Eastwood, Steve McQueen, Paul Newman, James Dean and Marlon Brando.

F is for the annual Warwick Valley Fireman’s Carnival.

Every year, no matter your age, I can 100% guarantee you that you will be attending the fireman's carnival at least once out of the four days.

G is for G’s restaurant.

Right in the heart of town, this restaurant offers a perfect mix of diner food and anything else you could possibly want.

H is for homecoming.

Because if you were a wildcat, then you know just how important this week was to us.

I is for Iriniri.

If you’re looking for one of a kind jewelry, this is the place to go.

J is for junior prom.

One of the only districts to focus on junior prom, every year you can count on the whole town sending us off for a night to remember.

K is for Kings Highway.

Not even close to actually being a highway; but you will probably find yourself on this road if you ever really want to go somewhere.

L is for loved.

We all like to act like we hate it here, but in reality the amount of love we have for our small town is unreal.

M is for Mount Peter Ski Lodge.

Skiing and snowboarding are extremely popular among locals, and having this Ski lodge right in Warwick makes winters all that more fun.

N is for NEVER failing to provide beautiful scenery.

Every road you drive turns into a scenic route, and when the sun starts to set it's even more beautiful than you could have ever imagined.

O is for Orange County.

Because when you tell people you’re from OC, they automatically think you mean California.

P is for Pine Island.

Known as the largest community in the Black Dirt Region, this small town is most famous for its black dirt onions.

Q is for a Quaint.

In a little town with a population of 32,065, everyone knows everyone. Which means you are guaranteed to see at least 4 people you know as soon as you leave your house. Triple that number if you plan on going to the local Shoprite.

R is for Railroad Green.

You know the weather's getting nicer when the local talent starts performing here again.

S is for the Spanktown Road Christmas house.

The holiday season would feel incomplete if the owners of this home didn't go all out every year.

T is for tourists.

Locals are so accustomed to an overflow of tourists that it doesn’t even affect us anymore. With such a cute town with a rustic charm, it's hard to not want to visit.

U is for many U-PICK Apple Orchards.


When fall rolls around, you can guarantee the orchards will be filled with families every day until the trees run dry.

V is for Vineyards.

The Warwick Winery is a local favorite, and when the weather is warm you can spend the day and picnic outside.

W is for the Warwick Wildcats.

We wear our mascot with pride.

X is for approX. 55 miles away from Manhattan.

Only an hour an a half away from the heart of NYC makes our town's location perfect for anyone looking for a weekend get-a-way.

Y is for Ye Old Warwick Bookshop.

A small bookstore in the heart of town is perfect for anyone who can appreciate literature, both new and old.

Z is FiZZy Lifting candy shop.

A perfect stop to take a trip back in time in this retro shop with all the candy they have to offer.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
