Kill a few birds with one stone:  If Bedford NY is within a 15 minute drive, this is always a town I wanted to see.  Like, why do Richard Gere, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively, Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones, Martha Stewart, Donald Trump, Bruce Willis, Rooney Mara, and Ralph Lauren live here.  It's basically like the East Coast's Los Angeles.  A Listers all over the place.  Scope it out for me and comment below to let me know how it is!
