“Drawing Sound” exhibit & performance in Woodstock Alternative scoring systems, such as those by Cage, Lygeti, Feldman and many others, have been responsible not only for some of the most daring experimental music of the 20th and 21 st centuries, but also for some compelling visual art as well. That synesthetic correspondence is examined and celebrated in “Drawing Sound,” an exhibition and performance of graphic scores by artists Marilyn Crispell, Jo Ganter and Raymond MacDonald opening at the Kleinert/James Center for the Arts in Woodstock on Saturday, August 26 from 4 to 7 p.m. Gradations of Light is a suite of seven images co-authored by Marilyn Crispell and Jo Ganter. Crispell is an internationally known pianist and composer living in Woodstock. Ganter is a highly regarded visual artist and printmaker from Scotland, where she is on the faculty of the University of Edinburgh. Running under Bridges is a collaboration between Scottish musician and composer Raymond MacDonald and printmaker Jo Ganter. “Drawing Sound” runs until October 8. A 36-page catalogue will be available. The Kleinert/James Center for the

Fair hours are from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. The second-largest county fair in the state showcases thousands of farm animals, agricultural exhibits and horticultural displays. Ribbons will be awarded to competitors vying in categories that cross the spectrum from horticulture to livestock, photography to quilting and fiber arts to baking. Adult tickets at the gate cost $15. Seniors and military with ID pay $10, and kids age 11 and under get in free. All concerts begin at 7:30 p.m. The Marshall Tucker Band plays on Thursday, August 24. All seats are free with paid admission to the fair. On Friday, August 25, the performance is by the Old Crow Medicine Show. Tickets are available for $37 day of the show. Visitors to the fair can expect to find activities far too numerous to list here. Racing pigs, stiltwalkers, a stingray encounter, mad scientist shows for kids, a blacksmith competition, police K-9 demonstrations and demos of quilting, rug-hooking and woodcarving and a blacksmith competition are just a few of the entertainments available. There’s an Action Sports Extreme thrill show on Saturday and Sunday at 2 and 6 p.m. ($5 for adults, free for kids age 5 and under) and a draft horse show on Sunday at 9 a.m. Gentler days can be imagined in the restored one-room schoolhouse and train station, relocated from their original sites. The Century Museum Village displays, complemented by storytellers in costume, offer a recreation of an early-20th-century print shop with a working press, a living room filled with Victorian-era furniture, a reimagined rural kitchen of the past and the opportunity to watch as repairs are done in a Model T-era auto shop. – Sharyn Flanagan Dutchess County Fair, Tuesday-Sunday, August 22-27, 10 a.m.-10 p.m., $10/$15, Dutchess County Fairgrounds, 6550 Spring Brook Avenue, Rhinebeck; (845) 876-4000, www.dutchessfair.com.

New Deal art by Olin Dows & Thomas Barrett on view in Poughkeepsie Barrett Art Center in Poughkeepsie is exhibiting “Olin Dows & Thomas Barrett: Artists and Native Sons� through September 16. The show features historic paintings and prints from Rhinebeck artist Olin Dows (1904-1981) alongside the work of Poughkeepsie-born Thomas Weeks Barrett, Jr. (1902-1947). Both artists were printmakers, painters and muralists. Dows administered the Public Works Art Project during the New Deal, and worked closely with Franklin D. Roosevelt to design and create the murals at the Hyde Park and Rhinebeck Post Offices. Woodcuts and paintings from both Dows and Barrett will be shown together in the exhibition. The exhibit is co-curated by Peggy LaBelle from the Consortium of Rhinebeck History and Hudson Valley muralist Franc Palaia, along with Joanna Frang, the executive director for the Barrett Art Center. LaBelle will give an illustrated talk about artist Olin Dows on Saturday, September 9 from 3-4 p.m. A reception will follow. The event is free and open to the public. Artwork by Dows has been gathered from private collections, including prints and paintings from his time in Mexico and South America and paintings rescued from a fire, complete with charred edges. In the 1930s, Dows headed the government program that commissioned artwork for post offices and court houses constructed during the New Deal. To stimulate interest in this art, Dow’s agency encouraged artists to seek out local ideas and subject matter for their murals.

Barrett was a muralist for the Treasury Relief Art Project and the WPA Federal Art Project in the early 1930s. When he came home afterward to his native Poughkeepsie, he expressed his idealistic nature and desire for a better society by creating a community art organization, founding the Dutchess County Art Association (DCAA) in his own home on Noxon Street. After his death, his sister Betty continued to live in the house until she died in the 1960s. She willed the house to the Dutchess County Art Association that her brother had founded, and it became the community art center Thomas Barrett had envisioned. Today it is known as the Barrett Art Center and offers art exhibitions, lectures and classes. The exhibit is on view alongside solo shows and a juried members’ show with works selected by Hudson Valley artist Staats Fasoldt.

by Joe Kinosian and Kellen Blair. The storyline follows Marcus, a smalltown policeman with big dreams of becoming a detective, who is thrust into the spotlight when a famous novelist is murdered at his own birthday party. The audience is introduced to a crazy cast of suspicious characters, and Marcus must quickly determine who the guilty party is before the real detective arrives. The tuneful whodunit is a highly theatrical adventure, loaded with killer laughs. One actor investigates the crime, and the other plays all of the suspects… and they both play the piano. The production will continue its run through Sunday, September 10. Tickets for evening performances Thursday through Saturday at 8 p.m. cost $39. Tickets for Sunday matinees at 2 p.m. cost $34. Tickets for children under age 16, accompanied by an adult, cost $12 for all performances. “Murder for Two” is directed and choreographed by Michael La Fleur. The musical director is Thomas Conroy. The cast includes Danielle Erin Rhodes playing “the suspects” and Jared Troilo as Marcus. Both actors are members of Actors’ Equity Association.

Susan Sarandon to receive award at Woodstock Film Festival The Woodstock Film Festival named actor and producer Susan Sarandon as the recipient of its 2017 Maverick Award. In addition to celebrating Sarandon’s film career during the October award ceremony, the festival will screen the 2017 film Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story, produced by Sarandon. “I’m thrilled to receive the Maverick Award for this year’s Woodstock Film Festival,” Sarandon said. “Mavericks forge their own path and move through life by taking chances, and it’s an honor to be added to the Woodstock Film Festival’s catalog of distinguished recipients. I look forward to heading up to Woodstock for the 18th annual festival.” The honorary Maverick Award will be presented to Sarandon on Saturday, October 14 in an awards ceremony at Backstage Studio Productions in Kingston.

Remains of a roadside attraction Discover the Emile Brunel Studio & Sculpture Garden in Boiceville
A
ccording to best-selling author Neil Gaiman – a transplant from England who now lives part of the year in Ulster County – a large part of the inspiration for his fantasy novel American Gods (recently turned into a Starz cable TV series) came from his fascination with “roadside attractions.” There’s something quintessentially American about these imaginative phenomena that popped up all over the country as its highway system spread in the mid20th century; apparently the Old World doesn’t really have anything comparable. Is it our romance with the automobile,
August 24, 2017
or merely our lack of cultivated taste that accounts for their proliferation on this side of the Pond? For Gaiman, the spark came from a gigantic sculpture of a cheese somewhere in the Upper Midwest. But New York State certainly has its share of roadside oddities. Growing up on Long Island, this correspondent spent much of her summers at the beach on Napeague Bay, near Montauk, where my grandparents kept a little Airstream camper. No road trip out to the East End was complete without visits to the Big Duck, near Riverhead, or the 12-foot-tall painted concrete statues of dueling musketeers at the Casa Basso restaurant in Westhampton. Similarly odd tourist attractions could readily be spotted in places like Lake George and Old Forge in the Adirondacks. They weren’t high art, perhaps; but for a small child, they were magical friends. The mid-Hudson Valley offers its own variety of postcardworthy destinations. Some are easy to spot, like the giant Prozac capsule and the Fork in the Road sculpture in Dutchess County, or Gnome Chomsky at Kelder’s Farm in Kerhonkson. Others take a bit more hunting, such as the cliffside petroglyphs carved and painted by Zadock Pratt in Prattsville.

In the case of the Emile Brunel Studio and Sculpture Garden in Boiceville, the site was a major roadside attraction before World War II. Then known as Le Chalet Indien resort, it became the summer home of Harold Prince and Max Ernst; regular visitors included Enrico Caruso, George M. Cohan, Edward VIII
and Wallis Simpson. Proprietor Emile Brunel counted Franklin D. and Eleanor Roosevelt among his personal friends. Then Route 28 got widened and relocated, Brunel died and the property, once approaching 80 acres in size was broken up. A pioneering photographer born in Châteauneuf, France, Brunel
7
had come to the US in 1904 and traveled through the Western states, where he became fascinated with Native American cultures. After settling in Boiceville in 1918, he began adorning his property with sculptures inspired by indigenous art (though somewhat lacking in authenticity or artistic sophistication). Beginning with a wire mesh core filled with rocks, then covering them with concrete, he crafted totem poles, animal figures and statues of a standing Native man (30 feet in height) and kneeling woman. Seven of the surviving sculptures have been consolidated onto a smaller parcel of land, where Brunel’s Arts and Crafts-style former home and studio – adorned with carved bas-reliefs, also Indian-themed – still stands. In recent decades, the site has been named to the National Register of Historic Places and a collapsed totem pole sculpture restored. Yes, you can pay a visit: The Emile Brunel Studio and Sculpture Garden are located on Da Silva Road, just off Route 28 in Boiceville. To learn more, start with http://bit.ly/2vWpiXf. A description of the statues for self-guided tours is available from the owners.

TASTE The mom behind the mitzvah wall Lagusta Yearwood remembers her mother with her latest innovation at Commissary in New Paltz
A
t one time, Lagusta Yearwood thought that she wanted to a life in academia: maybe study eco-feminist literary criticism at NYU’s grad school. “But then, it was like, ‘Why?’ I didn’t want to be a professor. I wanted to do something in the world.” She spoke to a friend and mentor in 2000, told her she was considering something a bit less…esoteric: culinary school. Her friend, author Carol Adams, urged her to take that path. “That’s what you should do; that makes a lot more difference in the world.” Yearwood has been making a difference in the world ever since. She’s not only the proprietor of the region’s only vegan chocolate shop, Lagusta’s Luscious in New Paltz, but she also owns and operates Commissary, a vegan café just up the street. And within a week of opening Commissary, she and a friend, macaron maven Maresa Volante, opened a vegan “sweet shop” in Manhattan. Veganism is Yearwood’s passion. Those shops represent her efforts to demonstrate veganism’s attractions and benefits to unbelievers while feeding the needs of its converts. Yearwood rolls her eyes at the memory of what it took to open two shops in two weeks in two distant locations, not to mention the time and toll that it takes to be the co-chair of the Town of New Paltz Planning Board. Along the way, she has discovered new needs of which she feels the world should take further notice. The plunge she took into opening the two new shops has revealed to her just how deeply she was affected by an event outside the view of the public and even, for a time, of herself: the death of her mother, Pauline
Dubkin-Yearwood, some 20 months ago. Her mother was a lifelong journalist who worked primarily for the Chicago Jewish News. Yearwood attributes her presence on the Planning Board – as demanding and thankless a task as there is in any community – to her mother’s influence. Her mother’s influence is also the inspiration of a recent addition to the Commissary: a mitzvah wall. “My mom raised me with the kind of quiet, very secular Jewish belief that you just have to do these little good things. Hence the Planning Board. But the idea of a mitzvah is that you do it anonymously: a little nice thing that makes someone’s day better.” Her mother always had a volunteer job; she always worked in animal shelters, cleaning cat boxes after work without complaint. “I feel like there’s a sense the whole hippie generation, or the generation after that, my generation, had a sense of volunteering and public service that I don’t feel like people – Millennials – have now.” Here’s where the mitzvah wall (the word means “good deed”) comes into play: A customer can purchase a treat of any sort for anyone who may be short of cash or merely in need of a pick-meup. The customer can describe someone as imaginatively as they wish – a lonely vegan, a kilt-wearing Scot yearning for a good cup of tea, a blue-eyed doglover – and post their offering in a note to the wall. When someone matching the description comes along, they can claim their iced coffee or pickle plate or macaron. If she feels that the mitzvah wall was a great idea, Yearwood has also come to believe that her headlong plunge into the

going to make grieving that much harder.’” Yearwood sees the wisdom of that advice now. “I think I’m only realizing in the past six months that she was totally right. I did not give myself time to grieve. It was great at first – I loved throwing myself into work – but I feel like I am having the most horrible delayed grief reaction. It was

GARDENER’S NOTEBOOK
The art of harvesting corn
S
ome gardeners sit tapping their fingers waiting for the first tomato of the season to finally ripen. I don’t. I’m waiting to sink my teeth into my first-picked ear of sweet corn. Not that my tomatoes don’t taste really good, but they’re also good all winter dried or canned, as is or as sauce. Or just frozen. An ear of sweet corn, though, captures the essence of summer. Not just for flavor and texture. It’s the whole ritual of peeling back the husks and snapping them off at their bases, brushing away the silk before steaming the ears, and then, holding an ear at each end, biting off kernels from one end to the other like an old fashioned typewriter carriage. (An image perhaps unknown to readers below a certain age.) An art to harvesting corn at the just-ripe stage, and anxiousness for that first taste, make harvesting, especially early in the season rather tenuous. I do early planning for that first taste by counting the days-to-maturity from when I planted. Problem is that the days listed on seed packets vary: One seed company lists days to maturity for Golden Bantam, the variety I grow, at 75 days; another lists it at 85 days; another at 78 days; and yet another, more realistically, at 70 to 85 days. It depends on where the variety is grown and how the season develops. The real countdown begins when tassels first appear atop the stalks. Harvest will be about 3 weeks hence. Then it’s time to keep an eye out for drying tassels at the end of an ear. Once that happens, the time is near. That right moment is critical because harvested too soon, the kernels have little taste. And this is among those fruits — yes, corn is a fruit, botanically — that will not ripen at all following harvest. Harvested too late, the kernels are tough and starchy. That exact right moment for harvest is when the ear feels “full” when grasped in my hand and a kernel on the peeled-back husk, with the ear still attached to the stalk, oozes a milky fluid when pressed with the thumbnail. If all these systems are go, it’s time to snap off the ear and whisk it to the waiting pot of steaming water. Golden Bantam is a non-hybrid variety. Like other non-hybrids, a planting does not ripen all at once, which is not a good commercial characteristic. It’s fine for me, though, because between staggered plantings and a wide window for harvest for each planting, I intend to be eating Golden Bantam corn, a favorite for many gardeners since its introduction in 1906, for weeks to come. Besides the first harvest of Golden Bantam, which I’ll be enjoying by the time you read this, I’m also eagerly awaiting the first harvest of watermelon, which, according to days-to-maturity listed on the seed packet, 65-75 days, I should have already been eating. (I sowed seeds indoors in pots in mid-May but it’s been a relatively cool growing season.) While I’m confident in harvesting sweet corn at just the right moment, not so for
hard not having my mom that first year, but I had these huge, shiny toys: huge businesses to run that were so stressful. And now I have to have a little bit more space to think.” At the time, she said, the plunge made sense: It allowed her to keep going every day. “But it always catches up with you. It’s been a year-and-a-half, but now, it just hurts all the time.” She heaves a sigh and brings the conversation back to the mitzvah wall. “With both the Commissary and the confectionery, we tried really hard to put little elements of my mom in those places, like with the mitzvah wall.” She takes a breath and casts her eyes to the synagogue across the street. “I feel really passionate about reclaiming Judaism in a secular, atheist way. When I was growing up, there was a real culture of Woody Allen, Einstein, Trotsky: atheist Jews; kind of funny, neurotic Jews. And now I feel like Judaism has been hijacked by religion in a way.” Again, her mother’s influence comes to bear. “My mom grew up in Chicago, and even though I grew up in Arizona, she was always very urban, sophisticated, with that sensibility.” Like everything else, she said, things have been polarized, “and it makes me sad.” Should you feel the need to comment, to offer Yearwood either advice or
encouragement, to contribute in some small way to her effort or perhaps to offer a pick-me-up, the Commissary is located on Church Street, where you’ll find the opportunity to do so – anonymously – inside. You don’t have to be Jewish, or even vegan, to do a mitzvah. – Jeremiah Horrigan For more on Commissary at 11 Church Street in New Paltz, visit www.facebook. com/LLCommissary.

harvesting watermelon, another fruit that will not ripen at all once harvested. Yes, I know all the published indicators of ripeness: drying up of the tendril closest where the fruit is attached to the vine; a dull thud, rather than a tighter, ringing or hollow sound, when rapped with my knuckles; and a yellow or cream-color of the fruit where it rests against the ground, and a toughening of the skin there, enough to resist indentation with a thumbnail. (The thumbnail is evidently a useful harvest tool.) Still, I’m not confident about harvesting watermelons on time, and not even just the first ones to ripen. The trial and tribulation is worth it. I hope to be harvesting and eating ripe watermelon also by the time you read this. (Update: I did and it was.) In contrast to harvesting Golden Bantam corn and watermelon (I grow the variety Blacktail Mountain), tomatoes are cinch to harvest. Except for some greenripe varieties, which I don’t grow, tomatoes turn their characteristic shade of red when ripe. Tomatoes can even be harvested underripe to ripen off the vine. Research has shown that when a tomato is about half green and half pinkish-red on the vine, a layer of cells form across the stem of the tomato sealing it off from the main vine. Then nothing that can move from the plant into the fruit, so the fruit can ripen to perfection. I came across some older research (J. Amer. Hort. Soc. 102:724-731. 1977) showing that the best-tasting tomatoes are those thoroughly vine-ripened. Duh. I knew that, and will harvest only vine-ripened tomatoes. – Lee Reich Any gardening questions?

MUSIC So good it hurts Robbie Fulks to headline Livestock Music Festival on Saturday in Bovina
T
he quintessential songwriter’s songwriter—literally revered by those who practice the craft and a fairly minor presence for everyone else—Robbie Fulks is so good that it hurts. So deft and grounded with language that it can sometimes take a few listens to notice how deft and free he is with the materials of music, Fulks is simply a curveblowing talent as a writer. Maybe that’s why you’ve never heard of him. Maybe a cloaked conspiracy of industry stringpullers, representing the pooled interests of the decorated Americana songwriting elite, assembled with the singular purpose of keeping this cat obscure. Or maybe it is something else. I once described Fulks’ major label coming out, 1998’s Let’s Kill Saturday Night on Geffen, as an attempted moonshot that fell sputtering in a cornfield. Someone was trying to mint a new Mellencamp, but this was the wrong candidate in the wrong getup. Fulks apparently saw it too. His follow-up, a modest collection of brand new songs on the decidedly unGeffen-like Bloodshot label, was titled, with a little jaded good humor, The Very Best of Robbie Fulks. Since then, his records, all on various genre labels, have been so many and so fine that his genius

eventually just bullied the industry into its grandest recognition—a pair of Grammy nominations in 2016 for the Steve Albiniproduced Upland Stories. Fulks has played this region frequently, and not even the bigger rooms. He returns to headline the 15th annual Livestock Music Festival on Saturday, August 26 at Livestock Headquarters at 124 Bob Hall Road in Bovina Center. Fulks jumps on as the headliner of an already well-stocked Americana lineup. Tickets for this one and a half-day festival are a modest $30.

“If you miss the slightly punky 1930s-style hot jazz of the Squirrel Nut Zippers, then you owe it to yourself to check out the slightly countrified 1930s style hot jazz of the Bumper Jacksons.” —CD Hotlist The Bumper Jacksons are hot and sweet, painting America’s story from New Orleans’ brothels to Appalachian hollers. Unafraid to scrap together new sounds from forgotten 78’s, the Bumper Jacksons boldly and elegantly balance paying homage to the traditions while fashioning their own unique, DIY style. Honored as the region’s 2015 “Artist of the Year” and “Best Folk Band” from 2013-2015 at the Washington Area Music Awards, the Bumper Jacksons are playfully creative with their originals and re-imagining roots music with both power and tenderness. Bursting at the seams with some of the richest threads of old America, Bumper Jacksons bring you into the center of a party where everyone’s invited and the dance floor never sleeps.

Still featuring one original member in guitarist Gary Rossington, the Skynrd complete lineup is no joke; most of the players have been onboard for years and years. “People may say, ‘they need the money,’ well I don’t think any of us need the money,” singer Johnny Van Zant says. “It’s just that we love the music, it’s bigger than the money, it’s not even about that any more. We have to make a living, sure, but it’s about the legacy of Lynyrd Skynyrd, and what it stands for, what the fans are all about. There’s nothing like getting out there playing a great show with Skynyrd and seeing people love this music.” The show begins at 8 p.m. Reserved seats range from $76.50 - $127.50.

Joe Giardullo & Late 20th Century Quartet in Rosendale on Saturday
Longtime local resident Joe Giardullo has left his tracks across of the heart of the 20 th century world of avant garde and experimental jazz, keeping company with its most hallowed names, all the while remaining a central figure in the Hudson Valley’s own internationally recognized “outâ€? jazz community. On Saturday, August 26, the Rosendale CafĂŠ (equally at home with fastidious retro swing as with free jazz skronk) presents Rhythm Matters: Joe Giardullo Late 20th Century Quartet.  The theme of the performance, as the title suggests,  is “Rhythm,â€? and the repertoire comes from some of the most rhythmically adventurous composers in and just outside of jazz: the intricate
Steve Coleman,  the always sublime Wayne Shorter, the eccentric giants Monk and Mingus, the frontman of the free jazz revolt Don Cherry, and the great jazz advocate Joni Mitchell. The Late 20th Century Quartet finds Giardullo interacting with a couple of his closest compadres in drummer Tani Tabbal and bassist Michael Bisio. He'll also be joined by the New York City guitarist Billy Stein. Tickets for this musical adventure are a modest $10. The show begins at 8 p.m. For more information, visit http://rosendalecafe. com.

On Sunday, August 27, Barone will be joined at the Towne Crier in Beacon by The Kennedys, David Amram, and Steve Addabbo. The performers will pay tribute to the NYC folk writers of that critical era: Bob
Dylan, Tim Hardin, Richard Fariùa, Fred Neil and Phil Ochs, and more. All of the performers played on Barone’s excellent and jangly new record of covers, Sorrows & Promises. They will perform separately and together. Tickets are $25.

NIGHT SKY
The next total solar eclipses
T
he Great Eclipse is over. For most Americans, this was the most widely publicized partial eclipse, ever. Normally, a partial solar gets scant mention in the mainstream media. (How many were aware of the very deep, 92 percent partial eclipse that unfolded over the Hudson Valley on May 10, 1994, for example?) But because this widely-seen partial eclipse accompanied the first US coast-to-coast totality in nearly a century, it enjoyed top-level publicity. In my experience, people who observe a partial eclipse find it interesting. But by contrast, a total solar eclipse is astonishing. Life changing. It's often perceived as the greatest sight of one's lifetime. But because a solar totality is so rare – happening only once every 360 years in any given location – relatively few people ever see one. And that's the average frequency. Some places, like Los Angeles, will wait more than 1,000 years between total solar eclipses. Conversely, the Hudson Valley got lucky. Our last total solar eclipse was on January 24, 1925, but the next one will happen much sooner than 360 years. The next solar totality here will occur on May 1, 2079. Still, to see one you must travel. The shortest distance will involve the total solar eclipse of April 8, 2024. That day, the moon's shadow will travel northward from Mexico through Texas and then curve northeast to create darkness over Cleveland, Buffalo, Rochester, and Burlington, Vermont. It will then cross Maine. That one will be an easy drive from here. But say you don't want to wait seven years. Then look ahead to future total solar eclipses. Next year, 2018, there are none anywhere in the world. But in 2019, the moon's shadow will sweep across Chile on July 2. That's a region our tour company visits annually and we know it well. Indeed, that total solar eclipse tour is already a quarter sold out. Check out www.bermanastronomytours.com and consider joining us. The next totality after that is also in Chile. That will be on December 14, 2020 in Patagonia. We just went down there a few months ago to arrange the hotels, restaurants and ancillary events for the tour. Moving on, the following total solar eclipse happens on December 4, 2021, but it's only seen in Antarctica. A tough one. Our tour company might charter a ship or we might sit that one out. We're not sure yet. There is no total solar eclipse anywhere in the world in 2022. But 2023 offers one
the Woodstock area of the last decade. Somehow finding time in the rare breaks from his life as a touring sound engineer, McDonough has completed his first true solo record, called Tonic. It is a heady, diverse, and – of course – extremely well-produced collection of original songs that, in their classicism and in their groove, would no doubt have made his old boss proud. McDonough celebrates the release of Tonic with a show at The Lodge in Woodstock on Friday, August 25 at 9 p.m. The event promises “special guests,” and, knowing the company McDonough keeps, they stand a pretty good chance of being really special. Admission is $5 at the door. The Lodge is located at 20 Country
Club Lane in Woodstock.

Ever since my diagnosis last July, I have been in an arc of dying, but treatments try to slow that down. Tomorrow, I begin a new hormone therapy of Ibrance and Faslodex. I also know that tumor marker numbers and scans are only part of this body’s story. How I feel physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually are essential to my medical considerations. And right now, I feel terrific! I hike with Quinn to Peterskill stream; I cheer at Declan’s baseball games; I laugh with Mike during Amy Schumer’s performance in Albany. Vivre. To live. Live. Liver. Eliza...just one of the characters our family adores from Hamilton: An American Musical. Despite never having seen this production, it has been our family soundtrack over these past months. Hamilton’s engaging storyline and smart, rhythmic lyrics offer neutral ground for us to explore pathways into our own emotions, ranging from devastating grief to delirious joy. Really, really, really appreciating your ongoing love and support for me and my family through your messages, cards, gifts, letters, thoughts and help. Thank you.
Mike [rolls over as he wakes up, sees me on my phone]: (groggily) What are you reading? Me: People’s loving responses to my post from last night! I share with him how it took me hours to craft the post. That just getting in needed a lot of time, and I finally landed on a

LIVER acrostic to shape the text. How the message seemed to ask to be written, because whenever I got hopelessly stuck on another letter, I resignedly started off to bed, and suddenly, the next idea would arrive. Mike: L – Letrozole, the drug I don’t take anymore. IV – the thing they stick in me. ER – the place I go a lot. Me: (stunned, then riotous laughter) How’d you do that? Mike [after reading my post]: You can’t use LIVER! No one uses the word in the actual acrostic; that’s a total copout. Mine’s better. [rolls over, back to sleep]++ AUGUST 25

As you come upon some flowers, you are invited to photograph, color, sketch, or journal about them (color pastels and sketch paper are provided).

Learn about fighting fires at the Muster in Kingston When our family visits the FASNY Volunteer Firefighter Museum in Hudson, I am reminded of the long rich history, inventiveness, science, and bravery of firefighting, I’m talking VOLUNTEERS rushing into a blaze to save lives and structures when the rest of us head clear in the other direction. This weekend, we can hearken back to those roots, and we can personally thank the volunteers who have upheld this important work over the decades. On Saturday, August 26 from 10 a.m.
to 3 p.m. in uptown Kingston, the 14th Annual Muster by the Volunteer Firemen’s Museum invites you to celebrate with displays of old, and new, firefighting gear, a silent auction, and hotdogs and refreshments. Admission is free, and donations are gratefully
accepted to help keep the museum running. The Volunteer Firemen’s Museum is located at 265 Fair Street in Kingston. For more information, call (845) 331-0866 or visit http:// kingstonvolunteerfiremensmuseum. weebly.com or http://bit.ly/2wkTYlY.

Great games at FDR site's annual Organizational Day I know I write this often, and I’m going to do it again right now: History Happened Here!

On Saturday, August 26 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the lawn in front of FDR’s home, rain or shine, come be a part of the 240th Military Police Battalion Organizational Day. The first Organizational Day was
74 years ago, to give the soldiers protecting the president and Hyde Park during World War II a break from their duties. This weekend’s activities reflect some of the fun those guys had back in the day, including tug-of-war, 3-legged races, and a baseball game! So, dress for sport, bring your baseball gloves, and enjoy a free all-ages family day together! The Franklin D.

Help end local hunger by volunteering Yes! Have you been looking for an “in” to volunteer somewhere? Want to help out in the community but aren’t sure how to get started? Are you a teen desperate to satisfy school volunteer hours? Or perhaps you are a club advisor interested in involving youth, or even adult colleagues, in charitable causes? Here you go! On Monday, August 28 from 3 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. at Family of Woodstock in Kingston, you and anyone you wish to bring along can attend the free Volunteer Orientation for Local Hunger Relief Programs. Participants will hear presentations by Angel Food East, Caring Hands Soup Kitchen, People’s Place Food Pantry, and the Rondout Valley Growers Association Farm to Food Pantry Program. Our family has volunteered for most of these groups for many years, and we always have a great time working together, learning new skills, and making friends, yearround, not just during holiday time.

The Namesake at PS21 “I wanted to tell you something. It’s about your name.” How did you arrive at any of your names? What does your name evoke in you? Did any spellings or pronunciation shift in your family over the generations? This quote above about “your name” comes from The Namesake, this week’s featured film at PS21 on Tuesday, August 29 at 8:30 p.m. PS21 hosts a free Tuesday movie series that shines a light on themes of immigration. I feel like movies can be one way we educate ourselves and our families about other perspectives from other cultures, while challenging our own personal beliefs, understandings, and questions. PS21 is located at 2980 Route 66 in Chatham. For more information or other upcoming films and events, call (518) 392-6121 or visit http://bit. ly/2vbXGdR.
