The show is on view from November 16, 2013 through January 11th, 2014, and if you miss the opening it makes a great stop on the road between Hillsdale and New York City — right across the river from the DIA Art Center in Beacon. Here are links for the Ann Street Gallery, driving directions, and Marty’s website.
For anyone who is looking for a good place to sled, Susan reports that Simon and Kimi enjoyed the slope behind the pond, down to the tennis court. She also notes that Butternut has a snow-tubing park, and that there is a good-looking slope “by the school on Rte 7 beyond the shopping center.” There are also the meadows on the upper loop trail, and the “Falcon Ridge” hill down by the farm to consider. If there are any other favorite sledding spots, let me know.
Thanks to everyone for helping to make a great picnic in celebration of the 40th anniversary of the community. It was great to see all the kids (and grown-ups) playing together, and amid the splashing in the pond, soccer by the barn, good conversation, sunshine and great food from everyone, I felt really lucky to be a part of this place.
Here’s a link to some photos of the event — sorry they’re not great — I was so distracted by the beautiful day that I forgot to take pictures until it was almost too late. If anyone else has pictures, please let me know and I will add them to the gallery.
Let’s do this again soon! Suggestions for our next community get-together are much appreciated — feel free to post comments here, or email me with ideas.
