Trip down memory lane or intiate yourself at FREE SPIRIT OF WOODSTOCK. Reggae QUEEN Lea's place.....

Missed the concert did you? Well don't miss FREE SPIRIT OF WOODSTOCK. Just ask LEA about it, she knows all the details and continues to keep the Spirit alive right here, even though the concert was in bethel 75 miles away. Oh you didn't know that? Well ask her all about that too. A feast for almost all the senses, ok ok there's nothing to taste, but plenty to see, smell, feel and hear. Lea is THE reggae mama and is every bit as enchanting and enchanted as her store. You're going to have to walk past Joshua's again but it's right across the street from WALKABOUT so yet another reason to go a few more feet. It's hard to say what the first things gonna be that you'll notice when you pass through her door. It smells SO good, maybe you and your happy nose will be looking to duplicate her incense blend at some point. Her merchandise runs the gamut of Woodstock memorabilia to clothing and 'accessories' for the modern day hippie. Is there such a thing? Here there is! She's got what you want, not to mention she is an absolute delight. Don't miss FREE SPIRIT OF WOODSTOCK, where hippies and rastas reign supreme. Oh yes, she also hosts reggae events so be sure to check out her myspace page for that info as well.

Barely scratching the surface here...

Hats hats and more hats

No Bob too big or too small.

Lea clothes us all. Adults and their infants or their friends' infants (these make such great baby shower gifts!) will find 'colorful' ways to express your inner or outer hippie'ster. Her adorable onesie's are not only 60's esque but also boast a selection of today's styles while hosting the icons of legends. then there's the jewelry the handbags, wall hangings, sheer and tapestries, stickers, patches, hats for jiffy pop heads and others on and on and on and ON...right on Lea, giving thanks for you!

From Poughkeepsie to Albany tune in to WDST 100.1 or online at WDST.com.

I'm going to need to do some homework if I'm to write about our local radio station WDST. Better yet let me just direct you right away to their website....I'm sure it's all in there. What I do know is that WDST is a variety of things. They've been man things over hte years. My favorite radio time with them is when they interview local musicians and treat us all by playing their music. WDST always plugs our local talent and they are everywhere as this area truly brims over with phenomenally gifted and inspiring not to mention accomplished musicians. Some are well known and some are not yet discovered, but with the help of WDST you'll discover a lot more than you may have thought when you tune in. So if you're coming up here and you like music and you want to know what's 'up', set your upstate station to 100.1 WDST they list all the happenings as well putting on Mountain Jam, star studded concerts at intimate venues, helping lea with Bob Marley's birthday party coming up this February and so so so much more. They were also the first to set the wheels in motion for this project and get this blog rolling! For that another huge thank you GARY! And thank you Marika for the ping pong, so much fun!!!

p.s. Justin Love painted this love bug....isn't it fantastic?!

A WDST poster, do you know who this is?

Sure I could have asked them, but I thought it would be more fun to ask you! Red Rover Red Rover send you guesses right over! Put them in the comment section....it's blank now, but this is a brand new blog so don't be shy go ahead and type it out....if you have any trouble posting a comment just select the anonymous option. Otherwise I think you might need a blogger account.

Wall of fame

Just another woodstock sunday.

ok so I'm a little bias, but I have to say, I think the only thing that could upstage my bunnies is a goat on a leash in the middle of town! What a remarkable creature she is. One thing is certain, you never know what you're going to stumble upon in Woodstock, just about anything resides behind these modest streets and tucked up in them hills. Whether you're coming with friends, family or just your imagination get ready for the ride and the trip!

Close encounter with a furry kind.

Santa anyone?

Every Christmas Eve people come from all over the world to see just how Santa will be coming to Woodstock this year. Its gotten a little out of control supposedly, or that's the best rumor I heard about this year's toned down Santa. He didn't ride in on an elephant or drop out of the bottom of a hand painted vintage VW bus dangling precariously in the sky, this year was lovely and simple. Stockings were handed out on the green to anyone who wanted one, and Santa did a jig in the trees.

Voila!

You actually CAN get there from here.

But why would you ever want to leave this meadow? Maybe because it's private property and there is most likely a 'no trespassing' sign somewhere. The area is full of jaw dropping light filled places that threaten a car crash if you're not careful. Woodstock, one of the most gorgeous parts of the world, drive slowly and don't hit the reindeer.

Driving directions to Woodstock from New York City. Get on the New York State Thruway heading North. I usually take the Palisades Parkway to the Thruway. Take exit 19 to Route 28 towards Pine Hill. Take 375 (right turn only) off of route 28 right into town. If you go this way you'll miss this field though!

For what I believe to be a more scenic route and not all that much out of the way at all try taking exit 20. It's the saugerties exit and then turn left. Once you're over whatever bridge you took, it's less than two hours North. See ya soon!

testing testing 1....2....3....

OK bunnies, we are really going to do this!
