Scott and I took a daytrip to the Hudson Valley for my birthday in Fall 2021. Wish we could have extended our vacation for an adventure like yours! I really enjoyed the detour from your artist+food Q interviews, which I love reading. Thanks to you--and Michael, too!--for a lunch break with vicarious weekend travel! Your story made my salad taste even better, oddly enough.
What a fun trip- thanks for taking us along via P&P! We also enjoyed experiencing the Richard Serra sculptures- currently in the Guggenheim in Bilbao, Spain. I'd be more tempted to go to Beacon for the pretzels than the Ryman paintings- and that cat!
Well, my husband and I are museum nerds! Yes, The Spider well have been the inspiration! Thanks again for doing what you're doing on this site. I feel I know what's going on!
Beacon has certainly changed since we went to Dia Beacon soon after it opened! It is an impressive place and it seems the town’s revival has caught up with it! Did you happen to see Louise Bougeois’s works there? She was still alive in her 90’s at the time, and still working! Thanks!
I've read about Dia Beacon since they first opened, but have never been drawn to their aesthetic. I like your husband's comment about the white canvas. After reading your piece though, I'd like to visit for the Farmer's Market and to make a glass-blown ornament. So, thank you. I wasn't aware of their history of making hats. How were the local galleries?

It’s the food for me. Yum!
