War (1754-1763) and used as a staging ground for attacks
against the French. The fort was named Fort William Henry

Adirondack
Chairs, Log homes & Log Furniture The
Adirondack Chair is one of the most popular outdoor chairs in the United States.
The chair incorporates design ideas used for many decades;featuring a rounded
back and contoured seat & wide arms. Adirondack chairs are comfortable because
the chair back inclines 30 degrees and is curved to fit your back giving excellent
lower back support. Its deep, angled seat and broad arm rests, make the perfect
place for a plate of food & drink.
The
idea of behind rustic furniture was to create interesting pieces using natural
materials such as twigs and logs that would blend into a decor and not stand out
. Rustic furniture makers today follow the age old tradition of using natural
materials to create spectacular furniture and rustic decor pieces. Rustic furniture
usually has no set line or angles. Each piece is individually crafted . Once
you have a log home with rustic elements you will want to continue that element
with the furniture and decorations. Finding beautiful log furniture, stairs
and railings, and other pieces that will complement your beautiful log home is
easier than you might think. Log furniture is naturally beautiful. You can see
all of the character and wood grain of the logs used in every piece of wood furniture.
Log furniture made with timbers, twigs and branches brings nature right into your
home or cabin. From custom crafted twig furniture, stairs and railings to antler
chandeliers, your unique rustic look is just a few clicks away. Here
you will find a wealth of information about Adirondack log cabin homes, log home
floor plans, financing for log homes, construction tips on log homes, Adirondack
custom log homes, log home photographs, and much, much more!

History & its Museums
The history of the
Adirondacks has been shaped and influenced by many powerful forces. Logging, mining,
farming, tourism and even medicine have all played a major role in the development
of the region. In the early 1800's, towns like St. Regis, Paul Smiths and Old
Forge sprang up taking advantage of the vast timber resources and iron ore deposits.
In the central Adirondacks, pioneers cleared the large tracts of land for farming
creating the first settlements. And beginning in the late nineteenth century,
the Adirondacks became a popular destination for the rich and famous. Known as
the "Gilded Age", this period is famous for the construction of huge rustic compounds
called Great Camps. We invite you to learn more about the history of the Adirondacks

Lana Del Ray stands striking
and platinum at her residence in the New Jersey trailer park, where
she writes and resides under the name Lana Del Ray.
Singer extraordinare Del Ray has been called the 'unofficial sweetheart
of rock and roll' by the finest of hipster musicologists. Her latest
triumph is the soon to be released record Kill Kill.
The sound of the record defies genre, as Lana sings the narcotic
blues in the David Kahne-designed world of electric flourishes and
orchestral bangs. Both Del Ray and Kahne have cited Coney Island
and America as the touchstones of the new record.
Lana Del Ray is now a regular performer and influence on the New
York City scene, having opened for the likes of Moby, Mirah and
The Blow. She distinguishes caffeine, G-d and David Lee Roth as
the primary influences on her sound, and has named Nirvana, The
Beach Boys and Elvis as the foremost of her great loves.
On the dark stage and on the latest EP, her voice rings eerily glamorous.
Check out the new music from Lana Del Ray available now on iTunes.

the Adirondack Park is, quite literally, a 6 million
acre playground and anglers paradise!

White
Water Rafting Season begins in early April and runs
through late September in most parts of the Adirondacks.
Each
spring, the streams and rivers fill up with fresh waters
from snow melting down from the mountains. This water
pours into the rivers and streams that can cause some
pretty fast running water. Whitewater rafting
is a challenging recreational activity utilizing a raft
to navigate a river.
