Columbia County, NY 1B1 - Omi Sculpture Garden - Ghent, NY

1B1 is fun to visit unto itself because it's a huge long runway that you'll probably have all to yourself. But if you want to leave the airport, there's a car to borrow at the FBO, a cute little market to buy the best grilled cheese and tomato soup you'll ever have Love Apple Farm - https://loveapplefarm.com/ and the Omi Sculpture Garden 10 minutes down the road. It's the perfect day trip with kids or a date. - Submitted by Cristobel
