Leaving the house can be a wild ride...

It was resurrected in 1987 and continues today in Athens, where it produces handcrafted replicas of some of its classic launches. Also featured will be Bruce and Muriel Anderson’s 1920 Hutchinson Long Deck Launch and Jim Anderson’s 1938 Marblehead Cruiser. Two of these five are making their way to Kingston from New York City and one from Branford, Connecticut. Boat-owners may enter the show as a Cruiser, Launch, Runabout, Utility, Sail or Other. Boats classified as “historic” are pre-1918, inclusive; an “antique” boat is built between 1919 and 1942, inclusive; a “classic” boat is built between 1943 and 1975, inclusive; and after 1975, a special class is designated for wooden boats. These waterborne crafts are beautifully restored and expertly maintained by their owners, who will be on hand to educate and informally chat about their passion for boats and the Hudson River.

Arthur Anderson, who will talk about his life as an art collector and the art of collecting at the Woodstock Artists Association & Museum (WAAM) on Saturday, August 16 at 4 p.m., comes alive when he talks about the paintings, sculptures and artifacts that surround his home. He’ll practically dance from a Bellows to a Bender, from classic Woodstock pieces of the early 20th century to more recent acquisitions, dotted around his house. But he also dances, metaphorically, as he discusses the many arts institutions that he has helped around the Hudson Valley – which he has called home for 30 years now – including the galleries that he funded at the Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art in New Paltz, his work with the Byrdcliffe Guild over the years and his special affection for WAAM. For this talk, Anderson will discuss how he moved from purchasing pieces for his home to the creation of a study collection of art and artists of the historic Woodstock art colony for research and museum use, highlighted in numerous shows (including this past summer’s wonderful focus on artist couples at the Woodstock School of Art). His talk will also cover such topics as what’s involved in becoming or being a collector, the various reasons why people collect art, what Anderson collects and why and, most importantly, what such an avocation brings to him on a personal level. Additionally, Anderson will discuss some of his picks from the catalogue coming together for WAAM’s upcoming Fine Art Auction over the Labor Day weekend. – Paul Smart Arthur Anderson talk: â€œThe Many Faces of Collecting Art,â€?

KING CRIMSON’S 1981 ALBUM Discipline – the first with the Belew, Levin, Bruford and Fripp lineup – saved prog/rock

Progressive credentials

Adrian Belew, Tony Levin & Pat Mastelotto play Bearsville

I

met Adrian Belew some time in the mid-’90s. He was in Woodstock recording the King Crimson album Thrak, and he came to see my band (yes, I have my subjects and objects and possessives in the right order here) at the nowdefunct Tinker Street Café. Although I was a fan and had been for more than a decade, I did not recognize Belew as Belew when a notunrockstarlike gentlemen approached me after our set and had all sorts of kind and perceptive things to say about Wormwood’s music: “I can tell you write the songs, because the arrangements are all implicit in your guitar parts,” he said. (I’ve been chewing on that observation for 20 years now, and I have decided that it

was not a compliment, precisely.) Soon my giddy bandmate Seth Ullian brought me up to speed on whom I was talking with, and I joined Seth in a barely concealed celebrity-aura giddiness. Belew spoke with me for a good half-hour at least, sharing more insights into our band and listening patiently as I told him all about how good he was, about why his solo albums – not just his high-profile session work with Bowie, Zappa and the Talking Heads, or his integral involvement in those amazing and singular King Crimson records of the early ’80s, but also his charming, childlike and beautiful solo albums like Lone Rhino and Mr. Music Head – were essential music to me, and how I had used his song “Adidas in Heat”

Belew did more than give it a human face; he turned math into song – beautiful, alien song.

Our talk hit a stumbling block when that evening’s headliner – Ken McGloin’s wonderful hard rock/performance art project Lunch Meat – began to play. Damn it Kenny, yours was my favorite local band of the ’90s, but I couldn’t hear what Belew was yelling into my ear because you guys were so good and loud. I swear to this day that it sounded like he was offering to produce Wormwood. (Adrian, I’ve got a new band these days working around here, and we’re playing a day after your upcoming Woodstock show down in the town of New Paltz. Seek me out for more details, please.)

It is kind of hard to describe to someone who wasn’t there why Adrian Belew – the guitarist, not the songwriter – made the impact that he did when he came on the scene in the late ’70s. Andy Summers had already been intelligently redefining the role of the guitar in the rock band, and Belew shared Summers’ sense of anti-machismo, textural, impressionistic action painting and the harmonic colors imported from 20th-century serious

classic rock manners. It was new, but new alone never made anything good. It was new, and it was deep, natural and real. King Crimson’s 1981 album Discipline – the first with the Belew, Levin, Bruford and Fripp lineup – saved prog/rock or at least staved off its demise for a few years. And it was all because of Belew: the most human, warm and quirky presence as guitarist, lyricist and vocalist that the genre has known. The band’s music of that time was stringent, cerebral, ungenerous and difficult in some ways (also quite brilliant). Belew did more than give it a human face; he turned math into song – beautiful, alien song. Listen to “Frame by Frame” or “Matte Kudasai” from Discipline if you want to know what I mean. His solo albums are not prog in the least, and are seldom littered with squalling guitar solos and animal impersonations. They’re pop – idiosyncratic, bedroom pop high on its own sense of unfettered discovery, full of wonder and good will, an insular one-person world that is both alien and also entirely in love with McCartney. “Mr. Music Head,” I said to Adrian that night, speaking of the lovely 1989 album that might have been a 100-percent-solo Jack DeJohnette Trio

JACK DEJOHNETTE TRIO PLAYS FAMILY BENEFIT

DINE IN • SUSHI BAR -TAKE OUT PARTIES - 20 TO 50 PEOPLE

T

he Jack DeJohnette Trio show at the Bearsville Theater on Saturday, August 16 is time in reverse: a fitting metaphor for one of jazz’s most rhythmically liberated and freewheeling players. The virtuoso drummer was ranked, anecdotally, by Allmusic.com as the third-most-important modern jazz drummer, after Elvin Jones and Tony Williams, whatever that means. For this date (a benefit for Family of Woodstock), Jack teams with the children of the men who gave him his start: saxophonist Ravi Coltrane, son of John and Alice, and bassist/electronics man Matthew Garrison, son of legendary Coltrane bassist Jimmy Garrison. DeJohnette seems to have his sticks stuck right in the center of every significant development in jazz in the second half of the 20th century. As a young man, he played a little with Coltrane and, most famously, with Miles Davis on the trumpeter’s essential (and polarizing) early fusion records, Bitches Brew and On the Corner. Early in his career, DeJohnette also distinguished himself in the highly interactive piano trio setting, eventually recording with the likes of Bill Evans, Keith Jarrett, Herbie Hancock, McCoy Tyner, Alice Coltrane, Chick Corea and should I just stop now? But I can’t just stop now, for that would leave out DeJohnette’s essential role in the development of the impressionistic world jazz associated with the ECM label and others; and in this story, DeJohnette was far more than “just a drummer.” He worked as bandleader and composer with his own ensemble on the New Directions records and as player and contributing composer with the legendary and Woodstockcentric Gateway trio (with Dave Holland and John Abercrombie). You had to be careful with those New Directions records: If you were looking for some proto-New Age, melodic folk/jazz, you might get what you wanted; or you might end up dropping your dollars on some truly free, dissonant exploratory stuff. If you did, I hope that you gave it a chance. He collaborated with world-jazz pioneers Ralph Towner and Colin Walcott of the band Oregon and with the great experimental electric guitarist Terje Rypdal. He has released several fine sessions as a pianist (and will be playing some piano at the Bearsville show). His overlooked 1990 trio record with Pat Metheny and Herbie Hancock, Parallel Realities – on which DeJohnette is the featured composer – is a disc that I personally spun into dust. You get the picture, and if you don’t, let’s drop a few more names that Jack has prominently recorded with: Desmond, Getz, Rollins, Stitt, Hubbard, Szabo, Shorter, Bley, Marsalis, Burrell, Henderson, Hutcherson, Bill Cosby…okay, I’ll stop with Bill Cosby ‘cause I just don’t understand that at all. To watch DeJohnette play drums is to witness such utter musical liberation, imagination and four-limb independence that it can actually be a pretty disorienting experience for mortal ears. He may be the ultimate in empathic and interactive drummers, seemingly engaged in three or more independent musical dialogues at all times, making a mockery of straight time, not terribly worried about whether you and I know where the one is. Confusing but never confused, dynamic as Everest, DeJohnette – still, here in his 70s – plays with all the complexity and elemental force of nature. – John Burdick

I didn’t want to take up much of his social time, especially since a couple of other music geeks had been draped over him all the way through the soup and salad, so I had rehearsed my line: “You’ve been a key part of two of the three albums that most changed the way I hear ensemble music: Discipline and Peter Gabriel’s third album” (the other being Tom Waits’s Rain Dogs). I finally decided not to mention Rain Dogs after all and just accentuate the positive. Then I went home and checked Levin’s credits. He played on Rain Dogs, too. He played on everything. I’ve never met the great, imaginative drummer Pat Mastelotto (Mr. Mister, King Crimson, Thomas Dolby, the Rembrandts and many more), but if I ever do, I will race up to him, shake his shoulders and say, “Dude, ‘Mayor of Simpleton’ was my wedding song.

Not that Loveless has ever been to Roxbury before; it’s just that she grew up in a similar rolling-hills-sort-of-rural community in Ohio, where she first started playing in a band with her Dad and sisters. She also writes about the complexity of feelings that one has, coming from such places.

Cory Henry plays the Falcon

ory Henry, a member of Michael League’s Grammy-winning world-fusion collective Snarky Puppy as well as the leader of his own trio, will be performing at the Falcon in Marlboro on Saturday, August 16 at 7 p.m. A multiinstrumentalist and producer who specializes in organ, Henry released Furst Steps in July of 2014. It’s a striking conceptual and cerebral collection of diverse keyboard-dominated compositions with an experimental world feel. The Falcon is located at 1348 Route 9W in Marlboro. No cover is charged, but donations are encouraged. For more information, visit www.liveatthefalcon.com.

Loveless is a true original, still in her early 20s. She started recording at age 15, spent time in Austin and eventually found her own voice a few years back by writing about what she knew in a blunt-yet-pop-

redolent way. And along the way, as she puts it, she found her audience shifting from a “younger scum-punk crew” to “always a handful of 40-year-old dudes.” Rolling Stone and Spin say that she’s great, and with a song in which she imagines Steve Earle stalking her, maybe the Woodstock-based legend will make an appearance at the old Gould-family-gymturned-auditorium in Roxbury. – Paul Smart Lydia Loveless, Saturday, August 16, 7:30 p.m., $25, Roxbury Arts Center 5025 Vega Mountain Road (off Route 30), Roxbury; (607) 326-7908, www. roxburyartsgroup.org.

Cymbals Eat Guitars play BSP in Kingston

Singles in advance of Cymbals Eat Guitars’ imminent new release – recorded locally at Dreamland with super-producer John Agnello – suggest that the shimmering, dynamic New York City indie guitar-rock band have in mind a move from the art toward the pop. Joseph D’Agostino’s somewhat mousy vocals are way up in the mix compared to 2011’s excellent Alien Lenses, and his delivery itself is more committed and character-full. The epic forms and frequent tempo and mood shifts are mostly absent, and the guitars have moved over to make room

for more layered and synth-populous arrangements, dense with heroic and referential sounds and high-drama gesture. It’s a natural progression. Cymbals Eat Guitars sound as delicately tuneful and emotionally dynamic as ever – just a little

Did you know? The Dutchess County Fair is the second-largest county fair in New York State

August 19-24, Rhinebeck

The 169th

Dutchess County Fair I

n a region with so many county fairs every summer, what sets one apart from the other? When it comes to the Dutchess County Fair, it has both longevity and size on its side. The six-day extravaganza of agritainment that begins on Tuesday, August 19 and runs every day through Sunday, August 24 at the Dutchess County Fair-

grounds in Rhinebeck will be the 169th such affair sponsored by the Dutchess County Agricultural Society. And with as many as half a million visitors coming through the gates each year, the Dutchess County Fair takes bragging rights as the second-largest county fair in New York State. Although many will come for the guilty pleasures of fairground food and a wide range of children’s activities, carnival rides and live entertainment, the organizers say that their mission is actually to remain true to the founding principles of the Dutchess County Agricultural Society, and to protect the agricultural integrity of the fair. There is plenty of that, for sure. There’s an antique tractor pull exhibition, vegetable and grain competitions and the largest horticultural show in the Northeast within the grounds of the fair. Looking at a six-day schedule of events, in fact, there’s far too much to pluck a few

things out to highlight. After all, the whole point is that there’s plenty of variety, and something different will appeal to each person. But scan the list and it’s clear that the rural nature of the Hudson Valley is well-represented amidst the bright lights of the carnival scene.

SHOW

NOTES FROM THE UNDERGROUND Inner Spaces art & music event on Saturday at Rosendale’s Widow Jane Mine

E

ver been to the Widow Jane Mine in Rosendale? Public events held there come few and far between, but are wellworth seeking out. It’s a big, fantastic space with an underground lake in the rear and such fabulous acoustics that Kingston’s avant-garde sonic explorer Pauline Oliveros has used it for some of her experimental recording sessions. Your next opportunity to discover this magical remnant of Rosendale’s 19th-century cement-mining boom happens on Saturday, August 16 from 3 to 5 p.m. Laurence De Seve, John Ehlis and Andrey Tamarchenko from the Element 22 gallery in High Falls are organizing a multimedia, multicultural arts event there called Inner Spaces, and the public is invited. Described as “a celebration of art and music, nature and soul,” Inner Spaces will incorporate opera, new music and improvisation, spoken word, photography, video and live painting. The performers will include De Seve as soprano soloist, Ehlis on guitar, Glen Fittin on percussion, Yasuno Katsuki on euphonium and Bill Ylitalo on woodwinds, along with poetry from akka b. and “special guests.” Visual artists Alison Hoornbeek, Laura and Vladimir Klimenchenko, Judith Schafman and Andrey and Julia Tamarchenko will create new artworks before your very eyes. Admission to this event costs $10, and attendees are asked to bring a folding chair and light (perhaps waterproof ) jacket.

Then, stop by the classic old Woodstock Reformed Church on the Village Green at the center of this picturesque and lively town for the inaugural concert of Woodstock’s latest musical offering to the Hudson Valley: its Rhythm ‘n’ Greens Inaugural Concert Series. The kickoff event will feature an evening concert of topnotch boogie-woogie and ragtime music from the legendary pianist Bob Mile, one of the State Department’s US musical ambassadors and Library of Congress-designated “national treasures” whose rhythmic playing never fails to rouse an audience. Finishing off a fine evening, the town offers up its annual fireworks show, again over on Rock City Road but visible from everywhere in town (especially behind the Reformed Church).

The pipes are calling

Hunter Mountain hosts Celtic Festival this weekend

Cock your ears late Sunday afternoon. If fully attentive, you’ll be likely to hear a distant sound of pipers and drums when the thousand or so musicians who take part in the Hunter Mountain Celtic Festival’s annual Mass March come down the mountainside, their elegiac playing bouncing off the surrounding Catskills and down into the valleys and dells all around. The annual festival, which runs from Friday through Sunday on the grounds of Hunter Mountain, brings together loads of Irish and Scots musicians, vendors, food and beverages. It started in the mid-1970s and now draws generations of regular attendees, many of whom stay throughout the Catskill’s Mountaintop area or nearby Celtic enclaves for the weeks before and after the Mass March. Each day starts with masses and benedictions and the slope is filled with music, good cheer and designated drivers. There’s a late fireworks display on Saturday and a final giant bagpipe session following the march late Sunday afternoon. The giant march itself, featuring large and small bagpipe marching bands from around the region,

T

he art of memoir is a literary form much in vogue of late, and Woodstock has been one of the epicenters of its revival. So it’s most appropriate that the Maverick, with its cozy wooden vibe, should serve as the venue for Speak, Memory: an evening of spoken-word performance by Actors & Writers of the confessional writings of some literary greats, some pop-culture icons and some members of the company. On Saturday, August 16, at 6:30 p.m., the troupe will perform two sets: one consisting of memoirs by George Orwell, Tina Fey, Andre Agassi and Gertrude Stein, and the other of memoirs by Laura Shaine, Nicole Quinn, Denny Dillon and Mary Louise Wilson of Actors & Writers. Admission is by donation, with $10 the suggested amount. Catering, wine and beer from Yum Yum will be available at this event. The Maverick Concert Hall is located at 120 Maverick Road, just off Route 375 on the southeasterly fringes of Woodstock.

CUS D’AMATO Story

An original theatrical production

Stage and screen actor Jeff Woodman, narrator of more than 400 audiobooks, will read several of his fa-

vorite provocative short stories for the benefit of the Cragsmoor Historical Society on Saturday, August 16. The presentation will open with pre-performance refreshments at 4:30 p.m., followed by the readings at 5 p.m. The cost is a suggested $15, with proceeds to benefit the Building Restoration Fund. Woodman’s lifelong interest in classic drama has led to a mastery of a wide range of accents. Drawing upon this rich resource made it possible for him to turn his narration of Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by John Berendt into a sterling performance as he took on the roles of the many eccentric characters in the Gothic tale. His intuitive empathy with every character, such as the zookeeper in The Life of Pi by Yann Martel, quickly pulls his listeners into their unique worlds. He has also enjoyed a long parallel career as a stage and screen actor, most recently appearing Off-Broadway in Hellman v. McCarthy with Dick Cavett. The Cragsmoor Historical Society

theater previews Changing hearts Tomorrow in the Battle opens this week at Stageworks/Hudson

VERONICA CHEWENS | STAGEWORKS/HUDSON

Two years ago, Stageworks/Hudson produced the world premiere of Tomorrow in the Battle, a new drama by British playwright Kieron Barry, who has won three Peggy Ramsay Foundation awards and a Norman Mailer Fellowship and been nominated for a London Evening Standard Theatre Award for his highly praised play Stockwell. The production, directed by Stageworks founder Laura Margolis, was quite a success, and so is being revived at the same venue by popular demand. It opens on Friday, August 15, following two nights of previews, and will run through the end of the month. Tomorrow in the Battle is a tale of secrets, obsession and betrayal in which Simon, a heart surgeon preparing for a transplant on a young boy, meets a successful young investor named Jennifer at the opera and embarks on a heated affair. Oblivious to her husband’s betrayal, Simon’s wife Anna contrives a romantic seduction of her own, even as she is pressured to

Uncle Rock at Hudson Opera House Ever seen Uncle Rock, with or without some kids in tow? Hey, he’s the real thing – much more than a star to the under-6 crowd, although part of the joy of his concerts comes from his unpretentious and uncondescending rapport with young rocksters. When he plays the Hudson Opera House this Saturday morning, August 16, there’s sure to be a number of adults around there to delight in his versions of classic Beatles, Who, Ramones and key Americana works while helping friends “oversee” their crowd-surfing and moshing toddlers. Uncle Rock is Robert Burke Warren, a lifetime rocker from several vintage New York City scenes including a good stretch of time as one of the legendary Fleshtones, as well as one of the stalwarts of the regional all-star band the Catskill 45s. He has put out his old adult-oriented albums, is a fiction and non-fiction author of major talent and is as great at penning instant classics for kids (“Too Many Presents,” “Rock Out” and “It’s the Sugar Talking”) as arranging classics (“Magic Carpet Ride” into “Magic Bus” and back) that get everyone up and dancing – as well

participate in a Ministry of Defense cover-up regarding the UK’s nuclear weapons system. Meanwhile, a trip to the New York Stock Exchange reveals to Jennifer that deception is not limited to the domains of the heart. In an interesting casting twist, Danielle Skraastad, who originated the role of Jennifer in Stageworks’ premiere production of Tomorrow in the Battle, will return as Anna this time around. The Greene Countybased actress has an impressive list of credentials on and Off-Broadway, in film and television. Her stage credits include appearing with John Lithgow, Diane Wiest and Katie Holmes in All My Sons on Broadway, under the direction of Simon McBurney. Off-Broadway, she originated the role of Laurie in Lisa Kron’s In the Wake directed by Leigh Silverman at the Public Theater, where she also played Maeve in the New York premiere of Tony Kushner’s The Intelligent Homosexual’s Guide to Capitalism and Socialism with a Key to the Scriptures, directed by Michael Greif. The role of Jennifer will be taken over by Olivia Gilliat, a recent New York University Graduate Acting Program alumna with a solid track record in regional theater and on the downtown New York City theater scene. Christopher Kelly, who plays Simon, spent seven seasons with the Denver Center Theatre Company, including three world premieres. In New York he was featured in the recent Off-Broadway revival of Lillian Hellman’s Another Part of the Forest and played Ishmael in the Drama Desk-nominated production of Moby Dick. Kelly also has plenty of Shakespeare under his belt, including playing Hamlet opposite Michael Learned in an evening directed by Nobel Prizewinning playwright Wole Soyinka. Performances of Tomorrow in the Battle at Stageworks/Hudson begin at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesdays and Thursdays, August 13, 14, 20, 21, 27 and 28; at 8 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, August 15, 16, 22, 23, 29 and 30; and at 2 p.m. on Saturday, August 30 and Sundays, August 17, 24 and 31.

Guardians of the Galaxy is a featherweight frolic in a galaxy far, far away – with ’70s music

Y

ou may have noticed me complaining now and again about a movie that’s all shiny packaging and soulless at its center. But once in a while a movie comes along where the shiny package is all that it aspires to be, and that turns out to be okay, because it doesn’t take itself the least bit seriously. Such a specimen is the latest cinematic product from the Marvel Comics universe: Guardians of the Galaxy. It’s 100 percent nutrient-free candy fluff, and I predict that you will gobble it up anyway. While I am only slightly versed in the Marvel canon, I am able to appreciate that the charm of Marvel characters usually lies in their flaws and foibles. They aren’t ever super to the bone, and they’re usually angsty about something in their pasts. That can lead to storylines that plunge into dark places – sometimes for issues on end of a particular comic book. True Marvel geeks revel in that stuff, I’m told. But when screenwriter/directors like James Gunn, who helmed the current Guardians project, throw together a bunch of disparate Marvel characters, what typically happens is that their respective angst-generating woes start to grate on one another, yielding plenty of snarky banter that sometimes rises to high humor.

Guardians of the Galaxy

megasmash The Avengers, this mutualirritation-society approach worked really well some of the time – particularly in scenes involving either Robert Downey, Jr. or Mark Ruffalo or both – and poorly in others, notably any time that the Asgardians with their dopey, stilted faux-Norse accents were interacting with anybody who spoke regular English. In Guardians of the Galaxy, every member of the ragtag universe-saving pickup team has his or her own obligatory tragic backstory, usually instigated by a supervillain named Ronan (Lee Pace) and his followers known as Kree. Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) is a sort of intergalactic Frederic from The Pirates of Penzance, abducted as a child by alien smugglers. Gamora (Zoe Saldana, here greenskinned rather than blue as in Avatar) has been adopted and turned into a killing machine by even-superer-villain Thanos (Josh Brolin) after he wiped out her real family. Rocket (voiced by Bradley Cooper) is a wisecracking raccoon mercenary who is the product of genetic tinkering (and sadly, has no idea what a real raccoon is). His Entlike sidekick/bodyguard Groot (voiced by Vin Diesel) is a survivor of some sort of vaguely described genocide – or perhaps clearcutting would be a better term. And Drax the Destroyer (Dave Bautista) is a barbarian type whose wife and child were killed by Ronan. So everybody has a gripe, but Gunn is canny enough not to let any of our heroes mope over their troubles for long in this fast-paced, utterly lightweight actioner. Some of the Guardians start out trying to

kill or abduct one another, but common enemies drive them together while their clashing individual quirks inspire them to ever-escalating insultfests, especially on the part of the quickthinking Rocket. Picture Han Solo and Chewbacca multiplied by twoand-a-half and you’ll sort of get the picture. What really makes this movie work is the terrific scriptwriting; once the five protagonists get together, the dialogue just gets funnier and funnier. Funniest of all is the utterly deadpan, vengeance-obsessed muscleman Drax, whose species is depicted as every bit as literal-minded as a 4-year-old. His inability to grasp metaphoric speech, along with the cognitive dissonance of hearing highly sophisticated vocabulary coming out of his tattoo-covered pro wrestler’s body, yields one howler after another, including the line that I’m appropriating for my own: “Don’t you ever call me a thesaurus.” The other element that makes the comedy fly in Guardians of the Galaxy is the soundtrack. Quill’s mother, who dies in the first scene of the movie – set on Earth in the 1980s – has left Peter his most prized possession: a Walkman and a cassette mixtape of cheesy, bouncy ’70s hits. The first time we see him as an adult, he’s stalking the ruins of a city destroyed by the Kree on some barren planet, seeking a

metallic orb that someone known as the Collector (Benicio del Toro) wants very badly for a wealthy client, and that of course conceals a magical MacGuffin that could destroy the universe. In the midst of this eerie alien landscape, Quill pushes the On button on his Walkman and starts bopping to “Come and Get Your Love.” And sonically, that sets the silly, anachronistic, upbeat tone for the rest of the movie. The plot of Guardians of the Galaxy is as derivative and predictable as one might expect for a movie in this genre, and the many spaceship battles and other action scenes are visually confusing and overbusily edited. It doesn’t matter. A couple of scenes toward the end involving all-for-one, one-for-all self-sacrifice wring out a bit of pathos, but in the grand scheme even they don’t matter. This movie is played for laughs, and giddy, nonstop, gasping-for-breath laughs are what you’ll get. What you’ll also get, if you sit all the way through the credits – as is customary for a film from the Marvel Universe – is a cameo visit to the ruins of the Collector’s demolished museum of tacky artifacts by this reviewer’s all-time favorite Marvel Comics character. It gives me hope that he may turn up again as the franchise marches on to the tune of ringing cash registers. I won’t spoil the surprise, except to note that this particular Easter egg was not laid by a chicken. – Frances Marion Platt

BSP hosts Kingston Film Festival this week

T

revor Dunworth, co-director and co-founder of the Kingston Film Festival that unspools for its third outing in the Uptown section of the county seat this Thursday through Sunday, August 14 to 17, says that he’s looking forward to one event in particular this time around. “Much of the movie Cold in July, which we’ll be playing at BSP Thursday night, was shot in Kingston,â€? he said of the Michael C. Hall/Sam Shepard/Don Johnson thriller directed by Jim Mickle. “And a majority of that local shoot and work was done right in BSP, where we’ll be screening the work. I saw much of it coming together then, and look forward to seeing it on the big screen in that same location.â€? Dunworth, the manager at Backstage Studio Productions on Main Street, noted how he and Astrid Cybele, a Kingston native who works with the San Diego Film Festival, “thought it would be great to bring something like this to Kingston.â€? They’re both thrilled that the festival keeps growing – “stubbornly independent,â€? as their logo runs – alongside the increasing ĂŠlan of the city that it was designed to serve. “We celebrate the art and entertainment of film in all its forms,â€? reads the festival’s mission statement. “Through screenings and associated events, the festival aims to present a wide spectrum of filmmaking: feature films, documentaries, animation, short films, experimental, big-budget, micro-budget, trailers and so on.â€? The offering this year includes a number of documentaries, including the inprogress Gone Postal, a paean to a Kingston post office worker by his son; Tobe Carey’s Rails to the Catskills; the Vermont-based Cow Power; and a variety of shorts. There are some cool narrative works, including the offbeat and dark Go down Death, Eddie Mullins’ Catskills-shot Doomsdays and loads of animation – plus some music

How do you define the hipness of a community? How about via its ability to have a laugh at itself while simultaneously celebrating its quirky business core and a key local icon?

The statue stood for years in front of what is now the Alamo before moving a few feet down Main Street to its new location in front of Laura Levine’s hipster haven (with considerable claims to being a tchotchke-hunter’s Heaven) at the Mystery Spot. There’ll be a Crockett lookalike contest, which last year drew all ages (and species) for a host of winners. There’ll be music by the utterly fantastic Catskill Ukulele Group, and free refreshments from the Sportsman’s Alamo Cantina. There’s even a 20 percent discount on all sales from the Mystery Spot, which has long advertised itself as a “shrine to clutter� and an hommage to the late maniac collectors of everything, Homer and Langley Collyer. – Paul Smart

Music to raise funds for Hudson Library The Lick Hudson ice cream shop at 253 Warren Street in Hudson is partnering with its new next-door neighbor, 2 Note Botanical Perfumery, to raise funds for the new Hudson Area Library.

“NINETY PERCENT OF SUCCESS is achieved by knowing you have something incredible to offer and having tenacious persistence.” – Jesse Saperstein, best-selling author and autism/anti-bullying advocate

Aug. 14-21 Get in the swim!

Here are some Hudson Valley sand beaches Now that Labor Day and its implications of summer’s end are in sight, some of you are frantically e-mailing me looking for beach information. When I need an ocean fix, I make a day trip with my crew to the wavy bliss of Robert Moses Beach on Long Island, Field 5, which has a great lighthouse walk and a fun playground, and we can skip the $8 parking fee by using our Empire Passport. Another option that we enjoy for calmer bayside waters is Calf Pasture Beach in Norwalk, Connecticut, which has a snack bar and a small playground. Sometimes we combine it with a trip to Norwalk Aquarium. The nonresident parking fee is $25 per car on weekdays before 5 p.m., $30 per car on weekends before 5 p.m. and $10 after 5 p.m. But for our regular jaunts, here’s a local roundup of some Hudson Valley sand beaches. Thanks to your input, this list is growing. Please keep them coming! Belleayre Beach at Pine Hill Lake is a treasure, with its beautiful white sand and the natural scenery surrounding it. Note that you can no longer use your Empire Passport to get in, but carloads cost $10, with additional pricing details for motorcycles et cetera on www.belleayre.com. The beach is a manageable size for all ages, and they offer rowboat, pedal boat and kayak rentals by the hour. This was the first place where our son swam on his own and jumped off a dock, perfecting his signature cannonball. Belleayre is open through Labor Day weekend for swimming every day at 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. on weekdays, and until 7 p.m. on weekends. Belleayre Beach is located at 33 Friendship Manor Road in Pine Hill, just off Route 28. For more information, call (845) 254-5202 or visit www.belleayre.com/summer/lake.htm. Lake Taghkanic State Park is another sandy beach where you can use your Empire Pass. Without an Empire Pass, the admission fee is $8 per vehicle. This beach is much larger, giving you lots of options for setting up your site, and they also offer boat rentals. Lake Taghkanic has a camping area on the other side of the park, and the snack bar has a wider selection than other sand-beach concession stands, including hot food and souvenirs. My kids have played with the toy boats that they got there longer than I ever would have expected. Swimming is available every day through September 1 starting at 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. weekdays and until 7 p.m. on weekends. After our time at the beach, we pack up our stuff in the car and drive over to the other end of the parking lot to the playground. It has some unique features that we don’t usually see in community play areas, and our kids especially love going on the dizzy seats there. Lake Taghkanic State Park is located at 1528 Route 82 in Ancram. For more information, call (518) 851-3631 or visit

JULIE O’CONNOR | ALMANAC WEEKLY

Last swim of the day at Belleayre Beach http://nysparks.com/parks/38, which includes a video tour of the park. Kingston Point Beach is an easy stop and has a bathroom on-site, as well as a nearby playground. On this same end of the strip, you can visit Kingston Point Park with its scenic views and enjoyable hiking trails. Kingston Point Beach is located at 53 Delaware Avenue in Kingston. For more information including swimming hours, call (845) 331-1682 or visit www.kingston-ny.gov. Sojourner Truth/Ulster Landing Park is beautiful and well-cared-for with a gorgeous view of the river. It has easy parking, close access to the sand beach and well-placed restrooms, and the playground adds one more element of fun! Sojourner Truth/Ulster Landing Park is located at 916 Ulster Landing Road in Saugerties. For more information, call (845) 336-8484 or visit http://co.ulster.ny.us/downloads/ ulsterlandingpark.pdf. The Saugerties Village Beach is a delightful small sand beach with an adjoining playground – plus it’s within walking distance of Krause’s Chocolates, just a short jaunt away. The Saugerties Village Beach is located at the end of Partition Street in Saugerties. For more information, call (845) 2462919 or visit http://village.saugerties. ny.us. Red Wing Park includes a large beach and an expansive park. Admission for non-resident adults is $12, $6 for children, and rates are half-price after 5 p.m. Additional pricing details are listed on the website. Red Wing Park is located at 11 Old Farm Road off Route 82 in East Fishkill. For more information, call (845) 221-9191 or visit www.eastfishkillny.org.

Peacocks run wild in Kingston This month, keep your eyes out in the Uptown, Midtown and Rondout areas of Kingston for the special appearance of the Junior League of Kingston’s fancy, artistically decorated peacock sculptures! Peacocks are one of the most popular attractions at Kingston’s Forsyth Nature Center, and as you have read here in Kids’ Al-

manac, the Junior League of Kingston is planning a playground renovation at Forsyth Park in April 2015 called Kingston Kinderland II. The 22 peacock sculptures are a clever way to tie it all together, and the October fundraising auction for them will benefit the upcoming playground renovation. Maps of the peacock trail are available in tourism offices, sponsorship businesses and art galleries. For more information, visit www.facebook.com/ kingstonkinderlandii. Share your photos of the peacocks “in the wild” with the hashtag #peacocksrunwild. THURSDAY, AUGUST 14

Miracle Treat Day at Dairy Queen My heart breaks over the pediatric cancers and other serious illnesses faced by area folks in our community. Miracle Treat Day is one simple way to help. On Thursday, August 14, head over to the Middletown Dairy Queen Grill & Chill for a Blizzard Treat, and Dairy Queen will donate $1 to our area Children’s Miracle Network hospital, the Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital at Westchester Medical Center, to help children in need. If you can’t make it to Miracle Treat Day, no problem: You can make a donation by purchasing a Miracle Treat Day balloon, each of which has a special coupon. The Middletown Dairy Queen is located at 11 James P. Kelly Way in Middletown. For more information, call (845) 381-1118 or visit www.facebook.com/middletowndq.

Bicycle Safety Rodeo in Middletown Another fun visit to Middletown is in store for Kids’ Almanac readers by attending the Hudson Health Plan Free Bicycle Safety Rodeo. I love these rodeos because, while kids enjoy the gamelike elements of the designated bicycle safety course, the repetition helps kids practice important bicycle skills without the risk of pedaling on real roads. Kids are also entered into a free raffle, plus a free brake, seat and tires check.

The event is free and takes place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Garcia’s Market, located at 123 North Street in Middletown. For more information, call (800) 339-4557 or visit www.hudsonhealthplan.org/ communities/bike-safety-rodeo.

Corn Festival in Hurley, Block Party in Kingston Since you’re reading Kids’ Almanac, you already know that one perq for living or visiting the Hudson Valley is the abundance of quaint town festivals. And you can see for yourself from driving past the area cornfields, the corn is as high as an elephant’s eye, and that means corn festivals! This Saturday, August 16 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., plan to stop at the 34th annual Hurley Corn Festival for epic corn chowder in addition to other themed food such as corn fritters, as well as craft vendors and children’s activities, such as the cornhusking challenge at 10:30 a.m. The suggested donation for admission is $3 per person, and children 12 and under get in free, with proceeds benefiting the Hurley Heritage Society. The Hurley Corn Festival takes place at the Hurley Reformed Church, located at 11 Main Street in Hurley. For more information, call (845) 338-1661 or visit www. hurleyheritagesociety.org. Then, after the corn festival, keep the fun going by driving north on Route 209 to Kingston, where you can attend the free Chronogram Block Party on Wall Street between John and North Front Streets from 4 p.m. to 11 p.m., featuring performances by the hula-hooping Mandaliahs at 4:40 p.m. and the kindie band Ratboy, Jr. taking the stage at 5:30 p.m., plus street entertainment, do-ityourself art tent, dunking booth and food trucks.

It’s one thing to listen to great live music. But what’s even better is to enjoy live music by artists who perform family-friendly songs during the day – in a family-friendly atmosphere! And the musicians are all parents of little people themselves! On Sunday, August 17 at 1 p.m., get ready to tap your toes to groove and dance around to live performances by Simone Felice, Ratboy, Jr. and Rachel Loshak at the Mountaintop School. Admission costs $5 per person, or $15 for families of three or more.

If you have been promising yourself to make it to one of the Hudson River lighthouses but still haven’t gotten there, here’s one way to really do it up: the 19 th annual Between the Tides Festival. Located at the Saugerties Lighthouse, the festival is scheduled “between the tides� because low tide is the only time when one may access the otherwise-submerged half-mile walking path to the site. This family-friendly event runs from 2 to 7 p.m. on Sunday, August 17. Highlights include live music and local food, and the lighthouse interior is open for tours throughout the day. Advance tickets cost $25 per person, $30 at the event; children under 12 get in free. On your way through town, check out all of the artistically designed lighthouse sculptures adorning the village sidewalks! The address for the Saugerties Lighthouse is 168 Lighthouse Drive in Saugerties. For more information,

Lyme workshops If your Lyme test is reported to you as negative, you may wish to look at the paperwork yourself, because “inconclusive” does not mean the same thing as “negative,” in terms of results; but it may get reported to you that way. That’s just one nugget that I learned recently about Lyme wellness. If you or someone you love is impacted by Lyme or other tickborne diseases or chronic illnesses, check out the new Lyme Wellness workshop series this fall. Regular workshops take place monthly

on the third Wednesdays from 12 noon to 2 p.m. at the New Paltz Community Center on the following dates: August 20, September 27, October 15, November 19 and December 17, and a special Fall Feast potluck and cooking demo is scheduled for Friday, October 3. Each monthly meeting begins with a bring-your-ownbagged-lunch gathering from 12 noon to 12:30 p.m., followed by a solution-focused workshop that supports healing processes and overall wellness. Admission to the workshops is free, but donations are accepted. The New Paltz Community Center is located behind the New Paltz Town Hall at 1 Veterans’ Drive in New Paltz.

here once scorned or appreciated only after being sautéed in butter, fungi have finally come into their own. If you’re among those who aren’t awed by fungi except when they’re sautéed, swallow this: Each gram of soil (the weight of a paper clip) might house over a million fungi, or anywhere from ten to 100 pounds of them in the top six inches of 1,000 square feet of soil. And most of what they do (for plants and soil; forget about your tastebuds for now) is beneficial. I recently heard of a project using fungi as a building material. On exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s PS1 in New York City is Hy-Fi, a cylindrical tower built out of bricks made from fungi that have been fed cornstalks, the fungi’s fine, threadlike hyphae growing to create dense bricks: an organically grown building! Among the benefits touted were that a

building made of fungi could be recycled. I’m not so sure that a building that can be recycled is a good thing, but one statement by the architect did raise my hackles: that the building could be made of waste materials, such as cornstalks. The same argument could be or has been used for ethanol production, which could be made from the same waste material. Cornstalks might be waste material in the sense that we don’t eat them, perhaps not even always feed them to animals. But cornstalks, wheat straw and other so-called “waste materials,” as the architect perhaps inadvertently pointed out, are a gourmet delight for fungi – also good food for bacteria (3 million to 500 million per gram of soil) and actinomycetes (1 million to 20 million per gram of soil), as well as protozoa, nematodes and other soil creatures.

earthworms (two to 22 pounds per 1,000 square feet of ground). There are a lot of hungry creatures down there. So these materials are not waste; they are food for soil life. They are what put the “organic” in organic gardening and farming. (They are “organic” in the sense that they were once living, and that they contain carbon compounds, mostly combined with hydrogen and oxygen.) They confer a range of physical, nutritional and biological benefits to soil, plants and hence the animals, including humans, that feed on them. Depriving the soil of these organic materials is what led, in part, to the Dust Bowls of the 1930s. Cornstalks as well as other organic materials too often considered as waste should be returned to the soil, either directly or after being first run through a compost pile. One measure of soil quality is the amount of organic material that it contains. Japanese beetles have not come into their own; they have never been and continue not to be appreciated. They swarmed in a few weeks ago to make lace of the foliage of a whole host of plants. Grapes are among their favorites, evident by merely looking out on the landscape and picking out the holey grape leaves. (The leaf veins typically remain intact.) Although roses are also a reputed favorite, the beetles left mine unscathed. Most interesting is the beetle’s effect on my hardy kiwifruits, specifically the super-hardy sorts (Actinidia kolomikta). I have four plants: three females – Krupnoplodnaya, Aromatanya and Sentayabraskaya – and one male. Of all those plants, only the Sentayabraskaya plant was attractive to the Japanese beetles: dramatically so. Looking up, I can see sky through almost every leaf. Japanese beetles are hard to keep in check. For a few plants, hand-picking into a can of soapy water (the soap so they don’t just fly out after a quick bath) is effective. The biological insecticide milky spore disease, applied to lawns to kill the grub stage in the soil, is sometimes effective, especially in more southerly locations. Of course, beetles emerging from the soil in summer can fly, so milky spore is useless unless done on a neighborhood scale. Neem is a relatively benign repellent and insecticide that’s somewhat effective; it would require too much spraying, especially for something with such an iffy effect. So I just wait the beetles out. Plants can tolerate a certain amount of damage, and the beetles typically wave goodbye to go burrow into the soil and lay eggs sometime in August. The wait was especially short this year, with most of the beetles departing by the third week in July. Thank you, guys and gals. Other pests also come and go. Mexican bean beetles, mentioned recently in this column, still are keeping to

themselves, wherever that might be – but not in my garden. Tomato hornworms, which are large caterpillars with voracious appetites, stripping leaves from tomato plants in a matter of hours, turned up in a friend’s garden. Fortunately, piggybacking those beetles were what looked like grains of rice. They’re actually cocoons of a braconid wasp, which will kill the hornworm. Leaving parasitized beetles alone lets the parasite live to attack more hornworms. Also worth ignoring are the pimples that have been appearing on leaves of many pin oaks. Those pimples – hemispheres about a half-inch across – are galls. Plant galls are abnormal growth made in response to an irritant such as a bacterium, a fungus or, most commonly, an insect. A few galls here and there rarely do a plant harm. Those oak leaf galls are pocking almost all the leaves on my pin oak. Still, I’ll ignore them or admire them; they sort of liven up the look of the tree. It’s too late, anyway, to do anything about them. Part of my weedless gardening technique (which I thoroughly fleshed out in my book Weedless Gardening) involves – sad to say, for some people – weeding. After all, no garden can ever be truly weedless. Even people who spray Roundup eventually get weeds, as they inadvertently “breed” for Roundup-resistant weeds, which now exist. My techniques are weedless rather than weedless. That brings me to hoeing. Most years my hoe rests on its designated hook in the garage. This year, it has hardly made it back to the garage, mostly just leaning up against the garden fence alongside the gate. “And why is this?” you might ask. The answer is rain. This season, rainfall has been dropping in sufficient amounts at regular intervals, all of which has coaxed good plant growth, including that of weeds. More importantly, the rainfall has promoted plant growth in paths and between widely spaced plants. One leg of my four-legged “weedless gardening”

stool calls for drip irrigation, which pinpoints water near plants. In a normal year, or a dry year, there’s little moisture to spur on weed growth elsewhere. This year, rainfall has democratically spurred weed growth everywhere. Hence the hoe. The best hoes to snuff out young weeds without unduly disturbing the ground are ones with thin, sharp blades that lie parallel to the ground. All that’s needed is to slide such hoes back and forth a quarter of an inch or so beneath the surface, cutting the stems of hopeful young interlopers. The work, if can be called that, is quick and easy, not calling for the “iron back with a hinge in it” recommended for a gardener by Charles Dudley Warner in his 19th-century classic My Summer in the Garden. Too many people use a pull or draw hoe, whose blade lies perpendicular to the handle, to try to conquer weeds. The hoes that I’m recommending are socalled push or thrust hoes. Some examples include the collinear hoe, the scuffle hoe, the stirrup hoe and, my favorite, the winged weeder. With any of these hoes, roots aren’t damaged and lower depths of soil remain at lower depths, so that inevitable weed seeds buried there are not awakened as they are exposed to light. (Minimal soil disturbance is another leg of my four-legged “weedless gardening” stool.) Still, my winged weeder is not effective unless it is used – frequently this season, ideally once a week or within a couple of days after a rain. Used in a timely manner, the wingèd weeder does a quick, effective and satisfying job. “The currant takes the same place among fruits that the mule occupies among draught animals – being modest in its demands as to feed, shelter and care, yet doing good service,” wrote a 19th-century horticulturalist. Hoeing takes time, especially this year, so it’s nice to balance that with something – currants, in this case – that is “modest in its demands.” One of my currant bushes, a Perfection (that’s the variety name) red currant, splays its stems upward and outward in an ornamental bed in front of my house. Sharing that bed, for beauty and for good eating, are huckleberries, lowbush blueberries and lingonberries, and, for beauty alone, mountain laurels and dwarf rhododendrons.

farm fresh... eat local

The only care that my currant gets is, anytime from November until late March, pruning. The plant bears best on two- and three-year-old stems, so I cut away anything older than three years old and reduce the number of new oneyear-old stems to the half-dozen or so most vigorous ones. The whole bed gets a sprinkling of either soybean meal (one pound per hundred square feet) or alfalfa meal (three pounds per hundred square feet) in late fall, topped with a mulch of leaves or wood chips. The bush began bearing toward the end of June, and a few clusters of the plump, jewellike fruits still hang from the branches. Most people use red currants for jelly or sauce. I like to eat them straight up – with my morning cereal, for instance. The flavor is tart early on, but has mellowed by now. Currants were once a more popular fruit in America, and especially here in the Hudson Valley. They are one of the few fruits that tolerate shade (and deer!), and were often grown in the shade of large, old apple trees. Local folk, including children, would ride out to the orchards in haywagons for communal picking. Currant is, truly, among the uncommon fruits for every garden (good book title, that). Just a quick note about my blueberries, which are also relatively carefree: Last year’s abundance of cicadas may have upped bird populations, or at least made birds believe that lots of food would always be in the offing. Not so, birds. Perhaps, then, that’s why so many birds are fluttering all around my blueberries – mostly on the outside of the net that encloses my Blueberry Temple of 16 plants. Right now a hawk – a cardboard one, swooping in breezes as it hangs from a string fixed to the end of a long, inclined bamboo pole – is meant to dissuade birds from even approaching the net. Calm mornings keep the hawk still enough so that an occasional bird finds its way through the net to venture into the Temple. – Lee Reich Any gardening questions?

RIBFEST IS ACTUALLY THREE EVENTS IN ONE: a food festival, a music festival and a competitive barbecue contest where winners can advance to the national finals in Kansas City.

I

t’s mid-August? Time to head over to the Ulster County Fairgrounds in New Paltz, where the tenth iteration of the Hudson Valley RibFest will be found Friday through Sunday, August 15 to 17. Friday is an evening affair, from 5 to 10 p.m.; then grounds are open on Saturday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Organizers of the three-day event say that it’s actually three events in one: a food festival, a music festival and a competitive barbecue contest where winners can advance to the national finals in Kansas City. Single-day admission to RibFest costs $5 ($4 if tickets are purchased in advance at sponsor Hannaford supermarkets) and a three-day pass is available for $10. Kids under age 12 are admitted free. There’s also a VIP package for Friday night, which includes the three-day pass along with a “Best of the Fest� event with all-you-caneat ribs and sides, six beer or soda tickets and a VIP gift bag. The food festival has all of the things that you’d find at a county fair – hot dogs, hamburgers, French fries, fried pickles, fried dough, milkshakes, smoothies, lemonade, kettle corn, soft pretzels, fudge, cider donuts and roasted sweet corn – but it’s the barbecue that’s at the heart

of it all. Restaurants from New Jersey to Philadelphia are represented along with more local options, each offering full dinners with sides or individual portions of chicken, brisket or racks of ribs. One of the best ways to do the Fest is to get half-racks of ribs from multiple vendors – the choices are all so different in taste and texture – and share the bounty with a friend. The lines can be long at each individual vendor, but splitting up accomplishes the task; and with a stop at the centrally located beer tent, which also sells bottled mojitos and such, you’re all set. On Friday night, live entertainment will be provided by country solo artist Lindsey Erin at 6:15 p.m. and country music family trio Angel Mary & the Tennessee Werewolves at 8:15 p.m. Saturday afternoon will highlight the final round of the local competition of the 33rd annual Country Showdown competition, taking the stage on Saturday at 1 p.m. There will be four acts, with one winner advancing to the state level. Following the competition will be solo country artist Chelsea Cavanaugh at 5 p.m., followed by the Little Creek Band at 6:30 p.m., billed as “a country rock/Irish music mashup.�

Sunday’s entertainment includes the highenergy country/pop of Jessica Lynn, who will wind up her nationwide summer tour at 1:15 p.m., followed by the Stephen Alexander Band at 3:30 p.m. with an eclectic mix of country, blues, bluegrass and rock. Kids’ Korner activities at the RibFest include crafts, a bouncy house, a climbing wall and a dunking booth. For adults, there’s a setup of shops selling specialty foods to take home. Then there’s the barbecue competition. The competitors have their own encampment on site where they hang out apart from the general festivities. As a visitor to the RibFest, wandering back to where the competitors have set up their smokers and grills, it feels like one has stumbled into a previously unknown village filled with a community of likeminded souls and the scent of smoky barbecue. But they don’t pay much mind to visitors, as they’re immersed in competing for more than $10,000 in prize money. The Hudson Valley RibFest is affiliated with the Empire State BBQ Championship Challenge, a statewide series of competitive barbecue events intended to promote the love of barbecue. The local event will have more than 50 teams competing for those cash prizes and the title of Grand Champion. On Saturday afternoon, the New England Barbecue Society grilling contest will hold an apple dessert competition, showcasing apples in honor of the Hudson Valley’s premier agricultural product. Hudson Valley apples must be part of the

dessert entry and not merely a garnish. The Kansas City Barbecue Society (KCBS) competition will be held on Sunday.

The hole thing Bagel Festival returns to Monticello on Sunday

N

ative New Yorkers take fierce pride in certain foodstuffs brought here when Ellis Island was the prime gateway for European immigrants – foods whose essential nature got tamed and watered down once they were adopted by Middle America. Pizza is the example that first leaps to mind: If you grew up in Brooklyn or Queens, you probably have a hard time finding a pie that meets your rigorous standards for what makes authentic pizza, once you’re outside a certain radius of New York. With few exceptions, pizzerias elsewhere just don’t get it that the crust is supposed to be chewy – not doughy or brittle. If you’ve ever tried ordering a slice in, say, Utah, you know what I mean. It’s like ketchup on a cracker. Another bit of heritage cuisine that New Yorkers hold close to their hearts – and that also absolutely needs to have a chewy texture, or it isn’t the Real Thing – is the bagel. A proper bagel isn’t found in the frozen-food aisle of your supermarket. A proper bagel is boiled, not steamed, before baking. And a proper bagel may be crusted with sesame or poppyseeds, but it definitely does not contain blueberries. Just…don’t go there. Jewish immigrants brought the secret of baking the beloved wheaten teething ring to our shores in the 19th century from Poland, where it had been a national staple for centuries. Judging by historical prints and woodcuts, the purpose of the hole in the middle of the bagel was for street vendors to be able to string them on a cord thrown over one shoulder. According to Leo Rosten’s The Joys of Yiddish, the first known citation of the word bajgiel is from the Community Regulations of the City of Krakow in 1610, which stated that the item was given as a gift to women in childbirth. One can easily imagine many a husband saved from strangling because his wife had a nice tough day-old bagel to bite down on during the transition phase of labor! So when the Town of Monticello proclaims itself the “Birthplace of the Bagel” for its second annual Bagel Festival, to be held this weekend, it’s taking some liberties. What it means is that the first “Dough Kneading Machine for the Forming of a Bagel and the Like” was patented by one Louis Wichinsky, a local resident, in 1968. Whether or not a bagel formed mechanically rather than by hand will pass the authenticity

test for taste and texture is something that you will have to judge for yourself, but there’s no better place to undertake your research than Broadway in Monticello on Sunday, August 17 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. What goes on at the Bagel Festival, besides opportunities to sample bagels and fair food from a variety of vendors? Live music, for one, with a stage set up at one end of the street and the entire stretch of Broadway wired for speakers so that you can amble around at your leisure and still enjoy the show. Among the live musical acts scheduled are Talking Machine, the Carl Richards Band, Kendall Phillips, Iron Cowboy and Somerville. Other attractions will include a Bagel Star Parade, the World’s Longest Bagel Chain and, honoring the legacy of a certain music festival that happened in nearby Bethel back in 1969, the World’s Largest Tie-Dye Peace Sign Bagel. Wichinsky’s original bagel-making machine will be on display in the Memorabilia Tent. There will also be a culinary event called Bagels & Brunch on Broadway, pairing local farmers with famous chefs. And if you can’t consume a bagel without guilt, you can sign up for the Bagel Triathlon, which begins at 1:45 p.m. Consisting of such activities as stacking, rolling and throwing bagels, it won’t burn off all that many of the 300 or so calories found in an average-sized bagel (not counting the cream cheese), but it’ll be zany and fun.

THE NEXT KINGSTON GREENLINE TOUR is this Sunday, August 17 from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m.

Tracking history Kingston Land Trust hosts Greenline Tour, wine-tasting and concert

R

ail trails have been a big hit since they began appearing 20 years ago, and now they’re expanding into trail networks. Here in Ulster County, the obvious hub for such a nexus is Kingston, a 19th-century transportation center where four railroads converged. All but one have been abandoned, and transforming these desolate stretches of weedy track into a group of interconnected linear parks where people can walk and bike has enormous potential for boosting the city’s quality of life and attracting tourists. An ambitious effort to do just that has been launched by the Kingston Land Trust (KLT), a volunteer organization that’s working with the Kingston Economic Development Office. The trail network, which would converge in the gritty heart of Midtown, would do two things: create pedestrian walkways separate from trafficked streets and connect the inner city to preexisting rail trails in the surrounding rural areas. Once completed, the network would enable hikers and cyclists to travel from Kingston as far as the Ashokan Reservoir to the west and, heading to the south, New Paltz, Gardiner and, in the future, all the way to Walkway over the Hudson in Highland. The first step of this plan will be the creation of a 1.5-mile in-city trail that leads from Midtown to the Hudson River Maritime Museum on the Rondout Creek. Construction is due to begin late this year, using funds from $4.3 million in grants obtained by the city. In the meantime, the KLT has been giving free tours of the city’s abandoned rail corridors – now branded as the Kingston Greenline – and other former industrial sites, some of which are now forested and populated by wildlife. Tim Weidemann, co-chair of KLT’s Rail Trail Committee, is hosting the tours, which are scheduled for the third Sunday of each month. Conversations with Michael Drapkin, co-owner of the Kingston Wine Company, which is located in Kingston’s Rondout, and Peter Wetzler, a composer, musician and longtime Rondout resident, have led

to two enticing hiking tour enhancements: After the two-hour walk, participants decamp to the Kingston Wine Company for a tasting and then stroll up to Wurts Street for a concert at the church that Wetzler and his wife, painter Julie Hedrick, have transformed into their home, studios and the Church des Artistes Guest House. It has been a winning combination: Last month’s tour, which explored the remains of an abandoned brickyard on the Hudson River and the grounds of a former cement works, attracted 45 people, said Weidemann. “It was exciting to show people this stuff and how the Greenline will connect to the promenade AVR [developer AVR Acquisition of Yonkers] is building,” he said, referring to the planned trail that will extend from Kingston Point north along the Hudson River to the riverfront walkway soon to be constructed by AVR, which plans to build a housing development on the cement-works site. Participants were similarly amazed at the views of the Rondout Lighthouse and Hudson River on an earlier tour that traced an old rail spur at Kingston Point Park, located at the juncture of the Rondout Creek and Hudson River, Weidemann said. On yet another tour, to underutilized Hasbrouck Park, located on a hill overlooking the Rondout District, “People were just floored by the views. We walked along a ridge in the woods, along the abandoned High Road, and saw an abandoned mule barn. It’s just great to have this stuff,” Weidemann said. The quality-of-life and health benefits of rail trails have been well-quantified, he noted. “Lots of studies show that because such infrastructure makes people feel more comfortable walking and biking, they do it more,” Weidemann said, whether it’s walking to their job or school, to the city’s shops or simply taking a peaceful stroll or bike ride during their leisure time. Besides the health and safety benefits, there’s also a corresponding economic stimulus. “Creating these longdistance networks that enable people to walk and bike feeds into a hugely growing tourism industry,” he said.

The wine-tasting and concert play up the amenities that will make the urban trails in particular so appealing: Kingston’s own version of Manhattan’s famous High Line (which has been a tremendous success and is fueling a spate of new housing development). Weidemann said that the KLT and the city are discussing enhancing the Kingston Point Rail Trail with interpretive signage related to the railroad, water and dogwalking stations, bike parking and public art. He said that he hopes that there will be art installations along the trail during next year’s Kingston Biennial Sculpture Show; graffiti art demonstrations and installations are another possibility. A trail network rooted in Kingston could also encourage car-free tourism, particularly attractive to visitors from New York City (many of whom don’t have cars); a person could take the bus to Kingston, stay at one of the city’s B & Bs, dine in its restaurants and bike to the waterfront for kayak paddles or sails on the Hudson River, as well as bike for miles into the countryside without having to contend with traffic. The next Greenline tour is scheduled this Sunday, August 17 from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. It will traverse the in-city Kingston Point Rail Trail, currently under development, which curves from behind the Rondout Savings Bank on Broadway through various neighborhoods down to the Hudson River Maritime Museum. From there, the walk travels another mile-and-a-half along East Strand to the trolley tracks extending to Kingston Point, which offers terrific views of the lighthouse and Hudson River. The railway, which has been cleaned up by volunteers to the point where it’s passable (the Phase One construction this year will involve removal of the rails and ties, grading of

the surface and ultimately installation of pavement), passes through a tunnel, over a high trestle crossing Route 9W and then over three lower trestles near the Rondout Gardens housing development. At 11:30 a.m., the tour will arrive at the Kingston Wine Company for a tasting. The wine will be “a thirst-quencher, light and crisp and dry with moderate alcohol levels,” according to Drapkin. Specifically, he plans to pour either a Garnatxa, a white grape variety from northern Spain, or a Jacquere, a white grape variety indigenous to a path of land in the Savoie region of southeastern France. Participants might want to take a lunch break at one of the restaurants in the Rondout before attending the concert, scheduled for 3 p.m., at the church. It will feature Wetzler playing an improvisational work on the piano and a sampling of Bossa Nova-style songs by Stephen Johnson, accompanying himself on guitar or balalaika, which he plans to record in Cuba. (Wetzler and Johnson are both members of the genre-breaking band the Repeatos; Johnson has recorded extensively in England and in the US, while Wetzler plays both classical and jazz piano and has composed several film scores. Repeatos member Ellen Reyes, who plays violin and B-vox, might also be on hand.) Besides the Kingston Point Rail Trail, the KLT and the city are also working with the Open Space Institute on a preliminary plan for creating a onemile link from Midtown Kingston to the Wallkill Valley Rail Trail, which heads south to Rosendale, New Paltz and Gardiner from Rockwell Lane, off Route 32. The study will define route options, which may consist of a trail tracing the original rail spur or a wide sidewalk along Route 32. Another link being considered is an extension of the Ulster County Rail Trail Project, which is proposed by the county on the upper part of the Ulster & Delaware R a i l r o a d , currently used by the Catskill M o u n t a i n R a i l r o a d Company. The U& D r a i l w ay runs from Cornell Street parallel to Broadway, passing through tunnels under Downs Street and Albany Avenue out to the Hurley Flats, past the Ashokan Reservoir and eventually into Delaware County near Belleayre. A third rail trail link, which is grassy and tends to flood but is otherwise perfectly passable on foot, follows the abandoned Ontario & Western railway. The trail begins behind the Super 8 Motel on Washington Avenue and connects with the Hurley Rail Trail at Route 209. Weidemann, who runs Rondout Consulting, which does management and strategic planning for nonprofits and municipalities, moved to Kingston with his wife 13 years ago and got interested in its abandoned industrial infrastructure while the couple was working as caretakers of the Immanuel Lutheran Church on Livingston Street. Sharing these hidden sites with people on the tours “is fun,” he said. Plus, the addition of the winetasting and concert is indicative of the kind of creative, productive connections that naturally occur in the city, he added. “Michael got really excited when we came up with the concept of the Greenline tours, and so did Peter. Since we’ve got a bunch of people together, we figured, why not come and listen to music in the church? It just evolved and shows the possibilities

The first step of this plan will be the creation of a 1.5-mile in-city trail that leads from Midtown to the Maritime Museum

NIGHT SKY

Growing darkness How it really works

O

f course you’ve noticed that we have less daylight than we did in July. Maybe you listen to public radio and hear the meteorologist recite the number of hours and minutes of sunshine today. Then he adds, “It’s a decrease of two minutes from yesterday.” Yet the next day he might say that there’s only a one-minute decrease, or a three-minute decrease. It seems to jump around. Let’s get to the bottom of this. This weekend, the Sun rises at around 6 a.m. and sets around 8 p.m. We get roughly 14 hours of daily sunshine. That’s a loss of only about one-and-a-half hours from our maximum, the third week of June. So far, things haven’t changed too much. Unfortunately for Sun-lovers, that’s about to change dramatically. In the next month we will lose two hours of daily sunshine. When days and nights are equal on September 26 (not on the Autumnal Equinox, September 23), the Sun will rise at 7 and set at 7: 12 hours of sunshine. During the next nine weeks, our decrease will average about three minutes per day. But the WAMC meteorologist consults daily sunrise and sunset tables that round off to the nearest minute. Sometimes by rounding off it seems that only one minute has changed, while other times it can be four minutes. But in reality it’s about three each day, and this is quite steady during this period that surrounds the Equinox. At the same time, the midday Sun is becoming less high. It is one solar width lower every two days. This is rapidly affecting the intensity of sunlight, and we can feel this change on our skin. The year’s greatest daylight decrease and sun intensity diminution both unfold between now and late October: a profound alteration packed into just nine weeks or so. That’s our story. It’s very different for those who live significantly north or south of us. People at the Equator experience no change at all. For Quito residents it’s always 12 hours of day and 12 of night, year-round. Those who live at the North Pole (namely, no one) also experience no change. For them right now, there is unrelenting sunshine 24/7: no night at all. And this will be true next week, and the one after that. Suddenly, around

In the next month we will lose two hours of daily sunshine.

JENNY DOWNING

September 25, over the course of just two days, the situation dramatically switches to zero sun. It’s all or nothing. But most folks on Earth do experience a quantifiable sunlight change during the next two months. In Fairbanks, Alaska, they are now losing seven minutes of sunshine each day: a loss of three-and-a-half hours of daily sunshine during the next month alone. Even up in Montreal, not far from here, they lose nearly an hour more than we do during the next month. Thus their decrease is over four minutes daily. The daylight reality very much depends on one’s latitude. But any way you slice it, these are our final few weeks of long days. – Bob Berman Want to know more?

SOMETIMES WE’RE ASKED

Why newspapers? Print is dead, right? Wrong. Studies show readers retain more of what they read in print because it’s easier to focus. Fewer distractions. The web is great for breaking news bytes, but our in-depth stories are best consumed in print. We only write local stories, so every issue is bound to contain something you didn’t know about your community. You lose that sense of discovery on the web, where you’re less likely to happen on something you weren’t looking for. And while our website is too primitive for such things, many sites collect browsing data for advertising. Our ads would never be so presumptious. We print on recycled paper when possible, so it’s sustainable—and accessible to those without the Internet or iPads; not to be overlooked in a Democracy.

Our Manager, whom almost everyone calls “Uncle” Mitch (because he is contacted so often for advice), wrote a very funny list of “agentspeak” that jokes about the silly descriptions in real estate ads. We try not to do that in our ads. We try to be frank without embellishment or embroidery (although we do have fun with them), so the next time you’re talking to a Realtor and hear, “Yes, normally a clothesline in the backyard would severely impact the appearance and price of a home, but don’t worry, I’m calling it a solar powered wardrobe spa…” It won’t be from our agents, I promise! This only hurts everyone in the long run.

adorable grey tabby kittens have a neurological condition which makes them a bit clumsy (aren’t we all?), but they’re happy & healthy & involve no more care than any other wonderful kitty. They’re ready to go to a loving home today. They’re not climbers except into your heart. AustinAnother cat friendly enough to roam the lobby & mingle w/the public. He’s affectionately referred to around these parts as the “lobby otter” for his outgoing personality & striking resemblance to an otter. He’s an older gentleman, neutered & great w/other cats. In case you were wondering, Victoria, Raven & Hammerjaw are still looking for loving and caring homes. So come see us and all of our other friends at the Ulster County SPCA, 20 Wiedy Road, Kingston (just off the traffic circle). Open 6 days/week, 11:30 am-3:30 p.m. (Closed on Mondays.) (845)331-5377.
