There is no doubt that this area is ski country. But people sometimes forget that Western New York is considered one of the most horse friendly areas in the nation. There are lots of riding trails with plenty of horse centered activities around. Perched up on a hill just on the entrance to Little Valley, this newer built home sits on five acres of open land. Custom designed and built, this house is a ranch style home with a sophisticated flair. The exterior
is a beautiful combination of hardy board and stone with a molded concrete walkway. Around the back is a state of the art two stall barn with swing out feeding troughs, running water and electricity. Much of the property has a split rail fence to keep the horses in. Inside this beautiful residence, oak flooring runs throughout and ceramic tile adorns the bathrooms. The high ceilings in the living and dining rooms, along with the columned hallway create a cosmopolitan atmosphere. Between the living room and the formal dining room is a double sided wood
burning fireplace. The kitchen is a masterpiece of custom design with a cooking island and a hutch to hide away those counter littering appliances. Just outside is a Trex deck with a view across the valley. Down the hall, behind a set of double doors is a large master bedroom, with a beautiful tiled bath. There are a total three bedrooms and two and a half baths. The basement runs the length of the house and can be finished for additional space. You don’t have to be a horse lover to appreciate this home. The barn is fully plumed and could be turned into an

DayTrippin’ : PrendergastAmish Artist to Exhibit At Predergast Library February 17th
JAMESTOWN – Anna J. Weaver, an Amish artist, will display acrylic folk art of Amish heritage at the James Prendergast Library Art Gallery Feb. 17 through March 16. An opening reception to meet her and view her work will be held from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Friday, Feb. 17, in the Fireplace Room at the library. The reception is free and open to the public, and refreshments will be served. Ms. Weaver’s work reflects everyday life and memories of her childhood in a typical Amish community. Examples of subjects are sugar house, wash day, milking time, ice skating, covered bridge, spring plowing, and winter logging. She started painting Amish scenes on slate and smooth fieldstones gathered while clearing fields for planting. Most of these pieces were no larger than a softball. A local restaurateur noticed her paintings in East Branch Books, a used book store in Sherman,
and commissioned her to paint a mural along the full length of one wall in a dining area. With no prior experience in mural art, she produced an Amish scene that measured 30 feet by four feet and depicted a farmhouse, sawmill and an Amish school with children playing in the yard. Something Unique Gallery and Frame Shop then asked Ms. Weaver for the opportunity to display and sell her work. She brought in several saw blades of various sizes and shapes with typical Amish scenes painted on them along with a few acrylic on canvas pieces. “Noted collectors of fine folk art noticed her work immediately, and most of her original pieces sell almost as fast as they come into the gallery,” said proprietor Bob Rogers. Ms. Weaver is a young Amish mother originally from Spartansburg, PA, and now living in Western New York. Her education was the typical
eighth-grade level schooling in small one- and two-room rural school buildings. Since Amish schools offer no formal art training, she is self-taught, and her works reflect her own talent and abilities. Encouraged by her mother, she started painting around the age of 16, concentrating on her favorite subject at the time, horses. Prints of her work are available exclusively through Something Unique, and some will be offered for sale during the library reception. Visitors will also be able to purchase note cards featuring her pictures during the exhibit. Gallery hours for the Amish exhibit at the library will be 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday; 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Wednesdays; and 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Saturdays. The next Prendergast exhibit will be the annual display by the Chautauqua County Art Teachers.
