Hello Hudson,
This goes into the category of Why we cannot have nice things:
Two men drive up in a van and tear down branches of a smoke tree at 446 Warren Street. The branches, now in bloom, are worth hundreds, if not thousands of dollars.
Thank you for your help!
Please support the animals at
AnimalKind’s online auction, click here.
Gentle Readers,
I know you wonder late at night, ‘Why does Trixie write this blog? I mean, it’s nice and all that, but really, don’t they have other things to do?’
I wonder the same thing.
Yet, every summer I need to update my page on ice cream in Hudson, and I remember I can use my ice cream purchases as ‘research’ – and in theory, as tax deductions!
You can take the drag queen out of accounting, but you cannot take the accounting out of the drag queen. Or, something like that.
Updated: Ice Cream In and Around Hudson
Also, it’s going to be a hot week, so, check out my page on:
Cooling off in Hudson, NY: Where to Go for a Swim
I didn’t get a chance to update that page this week, but it has not really changed in a year. Next week.
Not like I have anything else to do…
See you!
Trix
