(These places and events used to provide important - reasonably priced - entertainment for us)]. <br /><br />Lots of talented people here - for sure! But there aren't enough affordable outlets for folks to utilize, publicize, express and share (through the arts, music, technology, whatever...) that talent!<br /><br />I need to get more familiar with the little shops in the City - but I have to deal with my PTSD disorder [I don't like to broadcast it, but it is what it is...] as well.<br /><br />I think we could use a reasonably priced movie theatre in town - a youth party (I'm speaking about a business enterprise) facility - an adult alcohol free community gathering (fun!) place - and more shop windows that are clean, light and bright [especially in the midtown area...] Rhinebeck is really impressive in this regard, as is New Paltz. Maybe we could take some ideas and tips (What is working for them?) from there...NShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10520633398426903217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1504194539343627680.post-53766199513142990332009-12-15T14:01:39.028-08:002009-12-15T14:01:39.028-08:00thanks. nice work.

And I would like to hear about a few of your favorite things in Kingston.<br />Like, for instance, I really like the burgers at Big Belly. And then there's that lovely alteration shop on Broadway. Nicely located, easy to get to, and some talented people.<br />gberke@gmail.comthe kingston corridorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17109335195798141727noreply@blogger.com
