It's hard for me to see the Catskills as creepy, as familiar and toothless as they are, though I never stayed in any of the famous Borsht Belt resorts.Robbi N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04881145195435485238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11539948.post-77347633355742674832012-04-16T12:48:46.641-04:002012-04-16T12:48:46.641-04:00Yes, and as I said to other artists on facebook, p...Yes, and as I said to other artists on facebook, please share the news with any friends in NYC who care about the arts!marlyhttp://www.thepalaceat2.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11539948.post-90396714589769241762012-04-16T12:30:24.449-04:002012-04-16T12:30:24.449-04:00Portland is also too far :(
