I got home late yesterday and was exhausted even after a good 9 hours sleep last night.
I am kind of a newbie to fest ( 3 now under my belt) but I think I enjoyed this one the best but I credit some of that to the company I kept most of the weekend with many wonderful friends. Tarrytown sounds like a great place for a weekend fest retreat next year.
As far as the banquet, my piece of chicken was pretty good but I did not care of the pasta? or veggies. I think the dessert was good because I remember eating all of it but cannot remember for the life of me what is what I ate. After waiting in line for the banquet for what seemed like forever, it was nice just to sit down and eat. I barely ate all day in anticipation of my $60 dinner. When I was leaving the hotel Monday, I was talking to a gentleman who worked at the hotel and he said the dinner we had was what the hotel served at all their banquet/weddings. Renee and I splurged on dessert everyday around lunch along with a few glasses of wine here and there.
I loved the skit that Profstokes was in with the Collinsport Players who are such a talented troupe. She fits in well with them and it is a joy to watch her shine among the others. Richard Halpern does a great Julia as well as a good job moving the fest along.
Renee, Profstokes and I visited Times Square Thurs evening after having dinner with a few others from the board. I think there were about 13 of us. Of course another highlight was visiting with my dear friend Minja who is a ball of energy to say the least. I don't know where she gets it but I love her for it.
I hope to get photos developed soon and passed on to the board.

PS- I missed my Bruce show for this fest and when I read his message board to see what songs I missed I got a lump in my throat. He did some songs I've been waiting to hear a long time. But still I have no regrets and only happy memories
