We spent three days in the Hudson Valley to visit Storm King Sculpture Museum in New Windsor, and Olana in Hudson. Two places that are 90 minutes apart from each other. Amy had never been to Woodstock, so I made the call and found a cool funky place called the Hotel Dylan.
I booked The Artists Suite, which was basically 2 hotel rooms with a very large bath, vaulted ceilings and a fireplace in the middle.
Each room has a record player and a small record collecction. We found a Grateful Dead album still on the turntable, so I played it first.
Then I found this
We met the owner on the second day, and told him we enjoyed the place (he saved an old motel from being turned into a Dollar Store, and turned it into a tribute to the music of the Woodstock area)
Wish I had more tine to spend in the Lobby! But we did get the chance to play at an open mic event in town that is well attended. 30+ people signed up to play and we were the 8th act to go on,
I sill get a little nervous at new venues, because it's an unfamilar crowd and atmosphere, but we were well recieved, and like any of these type of events, it went by very quickly
We stuck around and saw some of the acts that followed, and got a few nice compliments from the other perfoermers, so we started to settle in nicely there. Perhaps we'll return some other Monday night
