Cementon rests in a hollow where the Catskill Creek, a ribbon of clear, cool water, gathers itself before spilling south. It lies 30.0 miles north of Poughkeepsie, NY (from Poughkeepsie, NY: bearing 360°T), and is situated 4.2 miles north-north-east of Saugerties. The land here is a study in soft greens and muted browns, a tapestry woven from the gentle slopes of the Catskill Mountains and the wider, flatter stretches that hint at forgotten floodplains. The air, especially in the mornings, carries a damp, earthy scent, tinged with the faintest breath of pine from the surrounding woodlands. Old farmhouses, their paint long since faded to the colour of weathered bone, stand sentinel on the hillsides, their windows like eyes gazing out over fields that have seen generations of cultivation. The rhythm of Cementon is dictated by the arc of the sun and the whisper of the wind through the leaves, a quiet existence that feels both grounded and deeply peaceful. The very name of Cementon speaks of a past industry, a time when the local limestone deposits were a source of vital material, shaping not only the landscape but the livelihoods of those who called this place home. Though the kilns may have cooled, the echoes of that industrial heritage linger, a subtle undercurrent in the town’s character. Now, the economy leans more towards the quiet hum of small businesses and the steady work of those who tend the land or commute to larger centres. The Catskill Creek remains a focal point, its banks a popular spot for quiet contemplation or the hopeful cast of a fishing line. For those who live in Cementon, it is a place where the past is not entirely forgotten, but rather folded into the present, creating a unique sense of continuity.
