Fall In Lake Luzerne! Sue is at "The Rock" - 2022!!!

So... in 2021 this happened. I landed a tourist based position with Town Of Lake Luzerne. Every Sunday in the summer I am at the historic Rockwell Harmon Cottage and Visitors Center on 37 Main Street in Lake Luzerne.  I am a trained Visitor Center Town Ambassador... meeting and greeting folks who have come to visit  "ADKs Amazing Little Historic Main Street!" in Lake Luzerne at the Rockwell Cottage. Too much fun. Plenty of fresh air. Windows and doors of the Cottage are wide open,  and a breathtaking view of the Hudson River can be viewed off the big, back porch. I love the little cottage. Come visit on Sundays in the summer and most Saturdays and all Sundays during Fall of 2022.  Visit anytime between 12-3 PM, through Columbus Day Weekend! Bring a comfy folding chair if you want... read the Sunday paper, or your book, or visit the three other historic places - Kinnear Museum on Sundays, Gailey School House, and the historic Pagenstecher Pulp Mill on the beautiful Mill Creek in Luzerne right around the corner in Mill Park!  Sundays are designated "Cookie Sundays" so come grab a cookie and join us on the porch through Columbus Day Weekend. Then I'll see you next July in 2023! 

And... I'm also collecting clean egg cartons to recycle for use. Several folks in the area have too many chickens laying  eggs and not enough cartons! Plus one. 

*** Email / text me if you are coming, in case I do take a day off in the Fall! I mean...you can go anyway!!! but if you are coming up to see me... let me know!  

Oh! And the fabulous gift shop will be open both days at the Adirondack Folk School,  with wonderful crafts for sale...  and classes year round. The Kinnear Museum gift shop is open on Sundays. 


 

ALTAMONT FAIR CAR MUSEUM.  Altamont Fair - August 16-21, 2022. Sue volunteered as a docent at the Altamont Fair Car Museum in 2022. What a blast! She also worked with Superintendent Rick Miller to get "The First Lady of Drag Racing" -  Shirley Muldowneys "Wall of Fame" up for all to see. Did a bit of education on her too! She is not only alive and well... but has a booming appearance schedule at the big national car events! She appeared at Syracuse Nationals this year. Hope to get her for the Altamont Fair next year.

FALL 2021 - Sad to see Hadley General Store close. (August 2021) NOVEMBER 2022 UPDATE! 

Hadley General Store hosted my photography for several years. Upon learning they were closing a few days back,  I came to pick up my two pieces... only to be surpprised by the owner who  presented me with cash  for the sale of one of the photos! The photo - "Little Red," was of a young wild horse taken in New Mexico a few years back during a photo workshop I was enrolled into. Thank-you whoever bought it! 

 

UPDATE!October 2022:  The Store has reopened as the Rockwell Falls General Store and is serving  breakfast. lunch. and dinner!

Summer 2021 - 

Busy. Busy. Busy!

I am pleased to report that  I have been busier than ever with exhibitions and sales. It is a joy to have photography be my hobby. Check my updated events schedule please and come visit!  

I will also be assisting Dr. Roger Wyatt with future editing of his film "Life On the Run."  Yup. It's true. We are cranking the machine up again! Stay tuned.  

I am greeting visitors on Sundays (12-3 pm) at the historic Rockwell - Harmon Cottage at 37 Main Street, Lake Luzerne, and inviting people to take a look at the Rockwell Harmon Cottage and everything else on exciting Main Street! If you visit, I will take your photo on the beautuiful back porch! I am also hosting a "pop- up" photography show to coincide with Lake Luzernes  "National Day of the Cowboy" July 24-25 events in town. I'll have my stunning images of legendary  Navajo Code Talkers,  Tombstone Cowboys, and a certain ADK personality on display... so stop by the Cottage. Refreshments will be served.  

Signed up with Warren County to participate in my first painting class ever with teacher Patricia Jarvis Webber on July 21. We are painting Georgia O'Keeffes "Lake George." Cannot wait!  

I'll have 14 images on display all summer long  (July and August 2021) at SPOT COFFEE - 55 Railroad Place, Saratoga. Even have Ernie Williams on display! May he RIP. 

Altamont Fair is On! I will have 4 images in competion and on display August 17-22, 2021 in the Fairs Fine Arts Barn.  

I also signed up for a film class through Schoharie River Center in Burtonsville. The class will be learning film techniques from start to finished product. 

I once again will be a volunteer photographer at the Sartagoa Automobile Museums Fall Car Auction. Cars to lust after for sure.   

Lastly... I will have a photo exhibit up at the Saratoga Springs Visitors Center through the month of September, 2021.  297 Broadway, Saratoga.
