breathe ... Just Breathe Story by Dan Hust he moment you climb Somewhere in Time Lane, you sense the peace that surrounds you.

A gentle breeze softly streams across the rippling grass and pond, rustling the leaves and creaking the branches of the trees gracing the Parksville, NY home of Justine and Jon Sutherland.

Yet you can’t resist looking skyward, where a Great Plains-worthy view stretches endlessly, the blue sky and white clouds somehow feeling more vibrant here.

“How are you Being?” Justine may ask you upon arrival, appearing to already know the answer.

And if you’re looking for inner peace, she’ll teach you how to “Just Breathe.”

That is, in fact, one of two names for this beautiful place: Justine’s Just Breathe Yoga.

Housed in a bright, airy barn overlooking the foothills of the Catskills, the yoga studio’s bamboo floors host classes in classic Hatha

T

Yoga Sivananda style, including a “Catskills Mountain Boot Camp” for all ages and fitness levels. Justine is as quick to sing as she is to speak, as eager to learn as she is to teach. Her welcoming spirit is both boundlessly euphoric and quietly joyful.

“She has such a welcome, intuitive spirit about her,” says Lindsay, one of Justine’s many yoga students. “I think she’s very special.”

Indoors and out, Justine Sutherland's abode above Parksville beckons with activities for both body and mind. A fitness room sits beneath her yoga studio (previous page), while her front lawn features this beautiful pond, gazebo and Adirondack chairs, perfect for simply watching the clouds and birds float past.

“She’s a fabulous teacher,” adds Joe, another student. “She is really concerned about her students.”

And her healing effect is undeniable.

“She helped me with my arthritis,” says Joe, who at 74 finds bending his limbs much easier thanks to Justine’s gentle guidance.

Lindsay ended up with both arthritis and high blood pressure when she became pregnant a few years ago.

“Medicine wasn’t working for me,” she recalls of her turn to yoga. “Within a couple of months, I was able to get off my blood pressure medication.”

Justine and her husband Jon’s shared love of the 1980 time-travel romance movie “Somewhere in Time” inspired not only the name of their driveway but of their bed-and-breakfast, Somewhere Inn Time.

Perched atop a scenic hill above Parksville, NY, the home, studio and bed-and-breakfast of Justine and Jon Sutherland exude a relaxing charm, inviting you to simultaneously explore the grounds and your inner self.

Open year-round, the property features a spring-fed pond and a Victorian-style gazebo that makes a spectacular backdrop for a wedding.

Or you can take a tour of the forest, hiking on the property, or accompanying Justine, a licensed state guide, to a Catskill Park woodland, where she educates about all the beauty of the woods, arrange a blueberry-picking

trip – or just introduce you to the pleasure of hugging a tree (there’s a special one on her property just for that purpose).

To discover it all yourself, contact Justine at 845-807-8704 or justinesjustbreatheyoga@gmail.com. A schedule of offerings is available at www.justinesjustbreatheyoga.com or www.parksvilleny.org/yoga.html.

reimagining a classic catskills destination M Story by Dan Hust

emories of Bernie’s Holiday Restaurant easily and happily flood Randy Resnick’s mind.

“We grew up at Bernie’s,” he says.

“My family ate at Bernie’s every Friday of our lives.”

Still living just down the road, Randy and brother Butch now own the Catskills landmark, propelling its decor, menu and offerings into the 21st Century.

“We wanted to rebrand Bernie’s, to bring it current,” he explains. Today, BHR is a stylish, modern, uber-popular restaurant that – like the name itself – feels both fresh and duly respectful of the dining destination everyone’s loved for 50 years.

Credit Randy and a staff focused on creating entreés and specials that aren’t ever what you’d expect.

“You can come to BHR every week and eat something completely different,” Randy promises.

“Here, our specials 10 C AT S K I L L S

CONFIDENTIAL

are actually created to be special.”

A member of a foodoriented family and a culinary arts graduate of Johnson & Wales University, Randy handpicks the dishes BHR serves – like the salmon, not sourced from large-scale producers in Chilé but sustainably raised on a farm in the remote Faroe Islands, north of Scotland.

He buys fresh poultry from Murray’s Chicken, just a few hills away from BHR, and live lobsters swim in a tank inside the dining room.

While the sushi bar is gaining fans every day, the most popular dinner choice is the Dodge Inn Steak, a cherished throwback to a long-gone BHR neighbor in Rock Hill.

“It’s a classic dish,” Randy nods. “The recipe is over 100 years old.”

The restaurant itself doesn’t look anywhere near as old, a much-praised renovation four

BHR/Crust 277 Rock Hill Drive, Rock Hill, NY 845-796-3333 (BHR) • 845-796-4444 (Crust) bhr-sullivan.com BHR is open Wednesdays through Sundays from 4-10 p.m, and in addition to dining offers on-site and off-site catering. Crust is open seven days a week from 11:30 a.m.-9 p.m. and offers an in-house and to-go menu, with delivery as well. Both restaurants feature vegetarian and gluten-free options, along with an extensive wine and beer list. years ago imbuing the 80-seat dining room, 20-seat bar and 160-seat banquet hall with an elegant yet oh-so-relaxed atmosphere.

A nice glass of wine, beer or cocktails relaxes even further.

“We have the best wine selection by the glass,” says Randy, thanks in part to a process that perfectly preserves bottles after they’re opened.

You can also find 40 various wines for just $25 a bottle.

BHR, however, isn’t the only restaurant on site. Occupying a slice of the original Bernie’s dining room is Crust Italian Eatery, an even more relaxed version of BHR, focused on gourmet, brick-oven pizza and Italian dishes.

“We have an awesome menu,” Randy notes, pointing out the racchetta pizza – which looks just like a tennis racket (but tastes FA L L 2 0 1 5

much better). “We do square thin-crust pizza, margherita pizza, with Grande cheese ... and we cook our pizza sauce, which a lot of pizzerias don’t do.”

With room for 50 inside and 25 more on an outdoor deck, this isn’t a pizzeria so much as it’s a dining destination in the model of BHR – and Crust’s sandwiches, heroes, salads, soups and sushi feature the same quality ingredients as its bigger brother next door.

The choices, however, don’t end there, as just across Rock Hill Drive is another Resnick family business: Brew, which promises “coffee by day, craft beer by night.”

“We have 10 taps and 200 beers by the bottle,” says Randy.

Many of the beers are locally created, as is the coffee – hand-roasted at his family’s facility a few miles away.

Add the fact that The Sullivan hotel is next door, and you’ve got a one-stop center for shopping, dining and lodging.

Randy says the idea is to welcome people to Sullivan County’s Catskills – including those lucky enough to live in the mountains’ midst.

“We’re just local boys,” he smiles, “who want to give back.”

have a cold one on the Catskills A

brewery as natural as the beer it makes?

Absolutely, say Ramsay Adams and Randy Lewis, who with Kirt Gunn opened the Catskill Brewery in Livingston Manor, NY last year.

“Our goal is to be the ‘greenest’ brewery in America,” explains Ramsay. The brewery is aiming to reach the U.S. Green Building Council’s topmost certification – Platinum LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) status.

“We did our best to employ green technology and sustainable practices in every facet of the business,” adds Randy.

Recycled steel, foam insulation and solar/geothermal technology have been combined so as to both heat and cool the barn-like structure,

even the refrigerated keg storage room, yearround.

“We’re connected to the local electric utility grid,” says Ramsay, “so any unused energy goes back into the system.”

While The Catskill Brewery is focused on efficient energy use, it’s simultaneously scrambling to meet the skyrocketing demand for its seven beers, with current plans to add a canning line, and also increase the current output from 120 barrels (3,720 gallons) a month to over twice as much in the coming months.

“The market supports our beer, and in that respect, we are thankful. It is going better than we could have expected,” Randy affirms.

Quality isn’t simply a buzzword here.

“Freshness and quality are in our mission statement,” says Randy. “We make the beer and deliver it directly to our customers in our own vans. If you see our beer in a restaurant or pub, it’s fresh.”

That means the talented brewery crew pay close attention to the 150 bars and restaurants where the seven varieties are sold. They’ll even make special trips to replace beer if freshness is compromised in any way.

Getting the beer into the hands of customers, however, is just the last link of an entire chain devoted to perfection.

“At the end of the day, it’s the beer,” says Dana Ball, the brewery's head of sales. “We can have a strong brand, and a dedication to sus-

tainability, but we have to make a great product first. I think we’re doing our best to deliver on that. We’re a young brewery, but we have grown faster than we could’ve imagined. You have to credit the beer for that."

Thank, too, the brewers, who often can be spotted between the tanks and piping of the brewery, checking readouts, adjusting controls, formulating new ideas.

“This fall, we’ll be making beer with local ingredients,” says brewer Caleb Brown, commenting on a beer called “The Local,” offered only when hops are being harvested in the Northeast.

Lewis added, “New York state was once the largest growing hop region in the country. We continued on page 14

what I love!”

The love of a good beer goes into everything at Catskill Brewery, where you can even find Ramsay serving up some suds on Sundays.

“When we thought about building a brewery here, it wasn’t a tough decision,” he says.

“Look at this place. We have some of the best water in the world, beautiful natural scenery, and farmers dedicated to growing great natural ingredients. The Catskills needed a brewery, and the country needs to hear about the Catskills. We’re going to tell them, one beer at a time.”

TO OUR BEST lists nearly 50 Sullivan County businesses that make and/or use locally-grown products, from maple syrup to cheese to wool to flowers.

Most of the listings are tourist destinations in and of themselves, offering hands-on demonstrations, interactive exhibits (often with the farmers/operators themselves) and freshly-produced items for sale. You’ll even find handy info on those famous farmers’ markets you’ve heard so much about!

Exhibit: Threads Connecting ’60s and Modern Rockwear at Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, Bethel; $5 for this exhibit only; or regular admission to museum for full visit. Fashion in the 1960s was a colorful explosion of thrift store finds combined with homemade accessories and off-the shelf staples. The stylistas of the day were often the popular musicians and their fans in London and San Francisco, and the big-name fashion designers had to play catch-up. The freedom and expression of those fashions have captivated the imaginations of subsequent generations, and even today high fashion takes many of its cues from the street and rockstar fashions of the 1960s and ’70s. Ends December 31. For info or tickets, call 583-2000 or 800-745-3000.

Exhibit: Outdoor Art Series: Written in Stone. Four magnificent granite sculptures by renowned artist Harry Gordon.

Much of his current work draws from his earlier classical, figurative work, and it is possible to find remnants of the figure in his art. The ideas behind Harry’s work are tied very closely to the material from which it is constructed. Using traditional, ancient mediums, he tries not to manipulate his materials beyond their natural state, imbuing them with an expression of dignity and grandeur to release their spirit.

Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Open until October 12. For info, call 866-761-2922 or visit www. bethelwoodscenter.org.

The exhibit will explore the hotel’s history from a modest 35 room building in the mid 1930s through its closing in 1998. Featured will be photos, memorabilia, lectures, round tables, music, etc. For info, call 434-8044 or visit scnyhistory.org.
