I was up that way years ago, probably to walk across the GW Bridge which is a fun thing to do because one can the enter the Palisades on the north NJ side and sit on a cliff overlooking the Hudson and Manhattan.<br />Anyway, on one to those trips I went into the theater.<br />These were in the days when the famous Rev.

Unfortunately Ike wasn't there that day but I did get to check out the place and yes it is indeed fabulous and a treasure.Media gluthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07338948037718606190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23477223.post-17432458641572738252009-07-06T10:29:19.742-04:002009-07-06T10:29:19.742-04:00Thanks for the report, Jill.
