October 3rd Postponed
Walkway Over the Hudson
Ade is planning a trip to the Walkway Over the Hudson on Thursday, October 3, 2019. We’ll meet at the Visitor Information Center on the Poughkeepsie side at 10 am.
Walkway Over the Hudson State Historic Park is a 19th century railroad bridge transformed into the world's longest elevated pedestrian park.
It stretches 1.28 miles between Highland and Poughkeepsie, so the entire roundtrip walk with be about 2.5 miles. It stands 212 feet above the Hudson River. We’ll get an aerial view of the neighborhoods the bridge passes over. If we’re lucky, we’ll see cargo ships, Amtrak trains, and freight trains pass under. There are indoor restrooms inside the Welcome Centers on both approaches.
I read that about 3/4 of the way across is an elevator which takes you down to the riverside. A very short walk from the walkway entrance on the Poughkeepsie side will take us directly to the Poughkeepsie Ice House where we can have lunch. The restaurant is an historic, exposed brick building with old world charm. With stamped concrete floors and 25-foot ceilings, the building is reminiscent of an earlier era. The windows frame majestic views of the Hudson River, Mid-Hudson Bridge, and Walkway Over The Hudson. Once I know how many gals are committed to going, I can make a reservation and see if they can give us separate checks.
Please let me know by September 27th if you want to join me on the trip. (adrienne.birchler@icloud.com or 518-452-0618)

OCTOBER 17th
Crane Museum of Papermaking
Ade is proposing a trip to Dalton, Massachusetts, about an hour’s drive from Albany, to the Crane Museum of Papermaking on Thursday, October 17th.
Since 1879 Crane has continuously supplied banknote paper for United States currency. Anti-counterfeiting technologies have been developed, updated and implemented by Crane since 1844. The Museum was expanded in 2001 as part of the company’s bicentennial celebration, and again in 2014 to accommodate corporate archives and create an area for hands-on papermaking and paper arts, which I participated in when I was there last year and enjoyed. The museum is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The Crane Museum of Papermaking is located in what was the rag room of Crane’s Old Stone Mill, dating back to 1844. This was the first mill built by the second generation of Crane papermakers in Dalton, Massachusetts. The address is 32 Pioneer Street in Dalton.
Dalton, Massachusetts
Admission is free (donation suggested). However, if there are 8 or more of us, I must contact the museum in advance of our visit. The museum can be opened at alternative times for group visits for a nominal fee, but if we get there when it opens at 1:00 pm as I’m proposing, we most likely won’t have to pay anything. I’ll still need to call them to tell them of our visit.

Janet is planning an exciting Spring event which theme is the Easter Parade. Let’s step back to the good old days of watching Lawrence Welk and listening to them singing to the Easter Parade by Irving Berlin.

You'll be the grandest lady in the Easter parade.
I'll be all in clover and when they look you over,
I'll be the proudest fellow in the Easter parade"
