Peace, Love & Music

Old Trinity Church in Great Barrington, Massachusetts.

I surprised Scott and took him to 

The Guthrie Center on Friday. 

This is where "Alice's Restaurant" took place

which is the song and movie by Arlo Guthrie. 

Click on the link if you haven't heard the song

in a while. It is over 16 minutes long!

Can't leave out the VW Microbus!

Words of wisdom by Woody Guthrie.

Every Thursday they host a Hootenanny, 

 Wednesday they provide free community meals,

and Saturdays they have concerts. 

Can't forget they also host a Thanksgiving dinner.

Amazingly we were able to get two tickets to a sold

out concert at The Guthrie Center! 

Lucy Kaplansky from New York City was the artist. 

Our theme for this trip is "Go for it!". 

So we didn't give up. 

The story is too long to include in the blog

 but we were blessed again!

 No photos were allowed during 

the concert so here is a link to see interior photos.

 Guthrie Center

The music legends continue sharing the love and

 importance of music by starting an 

instrument loan program for the community.

Back to New York.

Cute photo opportunity along the highway 

to Bethel, New York.

The Museum at Bethel Woods tells the story of Woodstock.

It was cool, informative, and colorful.

There is a short movie that plays on the 

windshield as you sit in the seats. 

It is amazing how many albums Scott owns 

that were on display.

They highlight every performer from Woodstock

through displays, videos, and music.

So much to read in the museum but we had 

to include the information about 

Arlo Guthrie. This display also includes

information on The Old Trinity Church.

Here is where Woodstock took place.

Can you imagine 450,000 people here? Amazing!

We had so much fun at the museum and walking

around the field.
