The "Brandywine Valley" was featured in the New York Times' travel section last week, and though it's very nice exposure for our area, frankly I thought they could've been a little more creative. Sure, the writer, Geraldine Fabrikant, hit the usual spots -- Longwood Gardens, the Brandywine River Museum, Winterthur, Hank's, Talula's Table -- and I'm glad she visited Tom Macaluso's bookstore, but I wish she'd eaten at one of the awesome Mexican restaurants in town, gotten a sub from Sam's or taken in one of the festivals, events or parades (the Plantation Field three-day event, the Mushroom Fest or the Unionville Community Fair would've been a wonderful spectacle).
Perhaps I speak too soon: maybe the NYT is planning a stand-alone piece on Kennett's Memorial Day parade next year.
