THE BRIDGE AND TUNNEL CLUB site often features photographs of myriad places, scenes, and things all around New York and beyond. Recently, the Bridge-and-Tunneller made a sojourn to various sites up the Hudson, and thankfully decided to share his photos. We bring you a selection of them, which you can find in their original form on the B&TC website.

Kingston is such a pretty town. I went there for the first time last summer, but I know I’ll be back. There are a couple of marvelous little restaurants, and it’s such a pretty drive there from our place in Durham Township.
I am new to this site; however, I was struck by your myriad links to the Poppy Appeal. Considering that you are – at least it appears so – American, don’t you think it would be far more appropriate and honorable to direct your readers toward funds that assist American servicemen?
Most unfortunately, we don’t commemorate Remembrance Day in the same way over here, nor does the American Legion have a special appeal at this time.
Even more unfortunately, Memorial Day is considered a day of celebration rather than reflection and commemoration.
Understood, but the fact that no exact equivalent exists does not have to – and should not – mean that you can not show allegiance, support for soldiers currently serving the country in which you live, or provide financial support to families of soldiers who have lost their lives. The American Legion’s Heroes to Hometowns Program accomplishes as much, as does the Family Support Network. I’d encourage you and any of your readers to visit http://www.legion.org/support/index.php?content=support_links
for a full listing of the many ways we may honor our servicemen by aiding them upon their return, aiding their families while they are away, and commemorating them when they have made the ultimate sacrifice.
I am not arguing that Britain’s Poppy Appeal is an unworthy cause by any means. However, there is quite a bit to be said for recognizing the courage of – and sacrifices made by – our own armed forces and their families.
Andrew, I love your blog.
Would you please give me a plug for The Pope’s Cologne?
Website is above. Pio Nono was an interesting man-lived hoseback-riding and continued riding a mule into his eighties. And he wore a wonderful cologne which one may purchase at my website.
Thank you and Happy New Year.
Pax vobiscum,
Fred Hass
