Thurman drops EMS contract

thom@denpubs.com

Turns to W’burg agency

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com THURMAN — In a move that apparently concludes a stormy r elationship with a local emer gency squad, the Thurman T own Boar d voted to 3-1 Tuesday July 12 to contract with the W arrensburg-based ambulance agency for up to $25,000 to provide services for the er mainder of 2011.

The town’s six-month provisional $50,000 contract with Thurman Emergency Medical Services Inc. that mandated an 80 per cent r esponse rate expired June 30, and several town officials lamented that the agency fell short of the standard.

GROUP DELIBERATION — During a session of the Warrensburg Summer Recreation program this week, local children spend a moment figuring how they will together launch a dodge-ball into a nearby basketball goal. The recreation program continues each daytime morning through mid-August.

create a tourism br ochure for Warrensburg, based on what they learned. Several of these are on display at the museum. In addition many wrote letters of appr eciation, some of which ar e excerpted here: • “I really liked the tour and learned a lot of new stuff about our town. It's a shame lots of old things got torn down. I also enjoyed the bus tour wher e I saw things I never noticed before.”

• “I liked the logging the most. The tools they used were really cool. My feet still hurt from standing. I want to be a logger someday.”

• “It was hard for the ladies back then because of all the cooking, sewing and cleaning they had to do — The shirt factory was inter esting. They made very good clothing.“ • “I liked the piano [pump

organ] and thought that it was very classy . I r eally like the train set and think that it's a very good diagram of Warrensburg. I learned so much.”

• “The painting outside [mural] was cool. The artist is good. I can draw but not as good as her. I love our town. It is so cool.”

• “My favorite part was learning about the old clothing we made and wor e. The wedding dress was really pretty.”

• “I thought it was cool that one of my classmates had a lot of relatives there.”

WCS students who visit the museum over the summer will be given a “Pride” ticket — a coupon r edeemable at the school. Students who bring a par ent or grandparent they will be given two.

Downtown diner draws crowd — like bygone days New Way Lunch open

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — For decades in the mid-1900s, a diner in downtown Warrensburg was a landmark attraction.

Before the Northway was built, it was open 24 hours, busy day and night with vacationers and tr uckers — as well as local residents.

Since 2010, the diner at 3748 Main St. has been dormant.

But on Thursday, July 7, for the first time i n r ecent h istory, i t w as a gain

crammed with people.

After an extensive r enovation, the diner was r eopened as New W ay Lunch, which has gained a loyal following at its other two locations in Glens Falls and in Queensbury.

The July 7 opening of New W ay Lunch was kept low-key, except for a simple “Now Open” banner . Many dozens of people, however , who had been awaiting the eatery’s opening, saw the sign, stopped in for a meal, and then shared the news.

Hank and Marye Allen of Johnsburg did just that. Headed south for a meal in Lake Geor ge, they never got to the village, Hank Allen said.

“We’ve been waiting for months for New Way Lunch to open,” h e said, eating a smothered hot dog. “We were driving by, we saw the sign and we did a U-turn.”

Town Boar d members Bryan Rounds and Austin Markey — who with cohort Dean Ackley, hung the banner — posted the news on Facebook along with photos of their meal.

“Then the floodgates opened,” Rounds said, speaking of the r ush of customers that showed up.

Alexandria Gazetos, New W ay Lunch manager, said Monday, July 11 On the first-ever night of business at New Way Lunch in Warrensburg, Alexandria Gazetos serves up an order of onion rings to town board members (left the eatery was full of customers to right) Austin Markey, Bryan Rounds and Dean Ackley. through the weekend.

Ronna Brainard of Warrensburg, the first person to drive over the new Milton Ave. Bridge after it was opened to the public July 11, waves to friends at CB’s Spirits tavern.

Milton Ave. bridge now open

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — There were no ribbon cuttings and no speeches.

Monday, July 11, a vital span linking uptown Warrensburg with other ar eas of town as well as Thurman and Stony Creek, was r estored after being closed of f for two years.

At about 5:15 p.m. Monday , Ronna Brainar d — bartender at nearby CB’s Spirits & Restaurant — saw state DOT workers taking down barricades at the entrance of the new Milton Avenue bridge. She jumped into her car and drove across the bridge, then stopped in the middle of the span. Her customers jogged out of the bar, curious about the commotion.

Waving to her friends, declaring she was the first person to cr oss the bridge, her shouts wer e returned by the bar patrons on the bank of the Schroon River. Chuck Bederian, owner of CB’s Spirits, snapped a photograph of the historic moment.

The original span, the Woolen Mill Bridge was built in the late 1800s and placed at the Milton Ave. site just before the turn of the 20th century . In April 1998, it was closed due to str uctural decay and deterioration of its abutments. It was r eplaced with a two-lane tr uss bridge with a pedestrian walkway, built with steel that oxidizes to be maintenance-free, while providing a historic look.

CB’s Spirits will be holding an open house July 16 to celebrate the new bridge’s opening. T o begin at 1 1 a.m., the party will include live music from noon to 2 p.m.

Adirondack Journal Editorial

Increasing the occupancy tax could help our economy

W

hat’s the big idea? Keeping our taxes down. That’s the big idea.

The Clinton County Legislatur e is in the p rocess o f d eciding w hether t o i ncrease the county occupancy tax fr om 3 to 4 percent, a suggestion brought up to legislators by the North Country Chamber of Commer ce. Is it a good idea? W e think so.

No one likes to see taxes go up, yet the cost of pr oviding services never goes down, and the pool from which to draw has r emained r elatively stagnant. So what is one possible solution to pr ovide our communities with the services they need without putting more of a pinch on our wallets? That’s right; you guessed it — the occupancy tax.

But, how does the occupancy tax help?

The way an occupancy or “bed” tax works is a certain percentage is built into the cost of r enting a r oom at a hotel or motel. That money is then given to the taxing jurisdiction, in this case, Clinton County, to be used toward promoting the area to tourists. W e know what you’r e thinking, “So? How does that help keep my taxes down?”

Well, it does in an indirect way. Think of it this way — by utilizing less of the money generated by property taxes, water and sewer taxes, and sales tax (another issue we’ll touch on in a bit) for pr omoting tourism, it puts those funds back in county cof fers to be used in other areas. And, it’s important to remember that promoting tourism her e is something that — and not to oversimplify it — is giving a little to get a lot.

According to County Legislator Harry McManus, the fishing tournaments that have been held locally this year to date have generated appr oximately $155,000 in the local economy. That’s not bad, given the concerns many have had over the lasting ef fects of this spring’s devastating flood. It’s also important to r ealize

that money would likely not have been generated without pr oper pr omotion, drawing people from across the border in Canada and from other places in and outside of New York State.

When tourists come to our region, they stay here, they shop her e, they eat her e, thereby helping all of us. And, if we’ve created enough of a mecca for them to do all that (which we feel we have especially with a str ong Canadian dollar), upping the bed tax by 1 percent really won’t be something to deter them from coming here or coming back again and again.

What about the sales tax issue? W ell, in our opinion, that would likely be the second best option for generating r evenue.

The only downside to increasing sales tax is that we who live here would bear the brunt of that hike. Sur e, we all know Canadian travelers who migrate south when the dollar is in their favor are the ones who spend a good chunk of money here. However, raising sales tax with the idea that they’d help raise the bulk of the money to help cover the costs of our municipal services is highly unlikely. It’s the rest of us who live her e and spend our hard-earned dollars here that would suffer in the scenario of a sales tax hike.

Nearly all bed tax revenue would come from visitors to the r egion, who use our services and infrastr ucture while they are here.

Bottom line? If the legislatur e is encouraged to move ahead with an occupancy tax hike, we don’t think it’d be the end of the world. In fact, it could help draw even more travelers through more promotion and ultimately strengthen our local economy.

Northway paving effort to conclude this fall

Viewpoint

LAKE GEORGE — A project to resurface the Northway locally, ongoing since last summer, is expected to be completed this fall, authorities said Friday.

The paving pr oject, between Northway Exit 18 in Queensbury and Exit 24 in Bolton, has been funnelling traf fic down to one or two lanes while one lane is being r esurfaced during work hours in recent weeks.

During that time, huge pavement stripping machines have been shaving the top two inches of asphalt of f the Northway, mixing it immediately with new asphalt binder , and pr essing it back in place as a new, smooth surface, state Department of T ransportation spokeswoman Carol Breen said.

This “mill and fill” technique r ecycles the material that would otherwise comprise tens of thousands of tons of waste pavement deposited in landfills, Breen said.

“The pavement was starting to deteriorate — we patch the potholes every year, and the small patches don’t last very long,” she said. “When the pavement deteriorates substantially , that’s when we go thr ough and tear up the

whole surface, and lay a new one down.”

The paving work, r esurfacing all Northway southbound and northbound lanes, has b een moving northward from Exit 18 over the last year.

The cost of the pr oject is $1 1.8 million, and Kubricky Construction of Queensbury is the contractor , having secured the project through a low bid, Breen said.

It’s DOT’s goal to focus available money on Interstate maintenance and repairs because the traffic volume is so much higher than average state r oadways, she added.

The last pavement r ehabilitation project on the Northway between exits 22 and 24 occurred in 1998, and for the stretch between exits 18 and 22, in the mid-1990s. These two earlier pr ojects these were complete pavement rehabilitation efforts, more extensive than the current project, Breen said.

The curr ent pr oject to r eplace the surface r epresents pr eventive maintenance, adding eight to 10 years to the life of the pavement, Breen said.

“It’s cheaper to keep a highway in good repair than reconstruct it when it deteriorates substantially,” she added.

News around Johnsburgh •100 Years Ago – July 1911• Drowned in the Hudson John Elwell, 58, of Thurman, was dr owned in the Hudson River pr obably Monday night, July 17, 191 1. He had been missing from his home since that date and his body was found by King Gillingham July 20, 1911 in the river a half-mile above the Gillingham house in Athol.

The body was so badly decomposed that it could not be identified except by some memorandum books in the pockets. It is believed that the man lost his balance and fell into the river while fishing or went over the bank while straying in the dark. Ther e was no suspicion of suicide and Coroner Burt of Lake George decided that death was due to accidental drowning.

For mor e than 50 years, John Elwell had been a r esident of Thurman. For many of those years, he drove the mail stage daily between Thurman Station and the post of fice.

An amiable man with many friends, he was unmarried and lived with his br other, Charles Elwell in Athol. He has a br other, Norman Elwell and his sisters ar e Mrs. Lemuel Barber and Mrs. Joseph Latham of Lake George. (Note: As it says in the Bible, “One generation comes and another one passes.” Nearly two years after her uncle, John Elwell died, Flor ence Elwell was born on April 27, 1913 in Thurman, the daughter of Charles Elwell. I knew her well — she was the sister of Katie, Laura, Elizabeth and John Elwell. Flor ence Elwell Ingraham, 98, died June 11, 2011.)

Horses spooked, woman dies While traveling to visit relatives in Stony Creek July 12, 1911, Mary J. (Perkins) Tucker, 70, was thr own from a wagon in a r unaway accident and sustained a bro ken shoulder, which on July 15, 1911 caused her death.

Mrs. Tucker lived with her daughter Mrs.

R.D. Baker in Warrensburgh, Mrs. Tucker was the widow of Ephraim Tucker, a respected resident of Thurman and she was the mother of two sons and five daughters. After spending a few days in Thurman among r elatives and friends, she desired to call on r elatives in Stony Cr eek and Mrs. Delbert Kenyon volunteer ed to drive for her which Mrs. T ucker declined.

They started out together in a light buggy wagon in high spirits. The horses, though mettlesome wer e consider ed safe for a woman to handle.

They wer e near the r esidence of W illiam Kenyon on the Stony Creek road when a bolt in the clip holding one side of the tongue fell out letting the pole dr op down so that it struck the horses’ legs. They became frightened and bolted and both women wer e thrown from the wagon.

Mrs. Kenyon sustained cuts on her face and painful bruises. With cuts, bruises and a badly broken shoulder, Mrs. Tucker suffered severely from shock. She was carried to the home of William Kenyon. Her shoulder was set by a doctor, but the next day pneumonia set in and her fight for life became hopeless.

She died thr ee days after the accident. Burial was in the Warrensburgh Cemetery.

Toddler laid to rest A funeral was held July 17, 191 1 for little Doris Norton, the three-year-old daughter of Fred Norton of Bolton. She was u r n over and killed July 15, 1911 by a touring car in front of Bolton’s Exchange Hotel, operated by her parents. The funeral was held in the Norton home. Besides her parents, Doris is survived by a sister about five years old.

The small body was laid to r est in Bolton Cemetery. The floral of ferings wer e beautiful and many. The child-sized rocking chair covered with water lilies was carried to the grave to remain for a short time. (Note: The details of little Doris Norton’s death wer e

told in the July 2, 2011 Adirondack Journal.)

Horicon makes trial run The new steamer Horicon, r ecently completed at Baldwin, made her trial trip through Lake Geor ge on Sunday , July 23, 1911 and fully met the expectations of her designer and builder, J.H. Marvel, who was aboard together with Andrew Fletcher , builder of the engines and a number of other of ficials of the company . The r eturn trip from Lake Geor ge to Baldwin was made in one hour and 33 minutes, pr oving the boat to be the fastest on Lake Geor ge or Lake Champlain — and it is said that the boat is capable of even greater speed.

This new boat will re place the old Horicon which goes out of commission after having been in service since 1888. The trips now being made by The Sagamore ship will be made by the new boat; plus The Sagamor e will make the trips now being made by the old Horicon.

(Note: It was only the next summer when the new Horicon found herself in deep trouble after she grazed a rock in the narrows of Lake Geor ge and one of her paddle wheels was considerably damaged and her hull was badly scraped. She was sent back to Baldwin for major repairs.)

Weather aids water shortages A most welcome shower on the afternoon of July 15, 1911 broke the drought which prevailed for several weeks in this locality. Garden stuff has been r evived and for the time being, the water in the village r eservoir is now suf ficient for the needs of the people.

The water in Lake Champlain is 22 inches above low water mark, a foot lower than it was last year at this time.

In Glens Falls and Lake George the storm on July 16, 191 1 was accompanied by hail which did gr eat damage to tr ees and gr owing crops.

The Methodist Church in Johnsburgh was struck by lightning during the July 16, 191 1 storm and damaged to the amount of about $100. During the storm Norman Ovitt’s house was struck and Mrs. Ovitt sustained a severe shock.

A forest fire on the Graphite company’s lot in Johnsbur gh, caused by lightning, made considerable trouble but the men finally got it under control.

Dr. W.F. W ilkinson became a member of the Warrensburgh Automobile Club when he purchased a 22-horsepower Metz runabout.

Charles F. Burhans is entertaining Mr. Defendorf of Albany, Robert Dr ouet of New York City and Miss W emple of Amsterdam at the Burhans Cottage at Kellum Pond. Mr. Drouet is a well known metr opolitan stage actor. (Note: Charles Bur hans’ fabulous home once stood on the now vacant lot on top of the hill behind the curr ent Warrensburgh Town Hall.)

In North Thurman, Lucius Russell had one of his heel cor ds cut with a scythe while working at the haying bee for Miss Emma J. Russell. He is able to walk but the foot hurts him considerably.

Alexander from page 6 Columbia’s faulty heat-shield causing disintegration on re-entry in 2003, we continued to reach for the heavens to do what was har d and dangerous. The challenge of space was more than just bragging rights, it str etched our limits and as President Eisenhower designated in 1958 should be a benefit for all mankind.

While Tang was not a NASA creation, as many have come to believe, so many more life saving and useful products have come from our space exploration quest. Satellites and long distance communication, microchips and the personal computer, smoke detectors, water filtration, cordless tools, highway grooving, memory foam, scratch resistant lenses, cat scanners, insulation, and even invisible dental braces just to name a few.

Our country needs something if not space exploration, to focus our attention beyond the everyday issue we face to once again motivate our youth and capture our nation’s imagination. Cell phones, I-Pads and computer games may be captivating to

some but not all. Space exploration was both a welcomed distraction during difficult times but also a necessary outlet that channeled our collective energies and future aspirations.

NASA isn’t going away but with no schedule for accomplishments and a soft plan for its future many are predicting a lost decade or more while we labor away on the day’s pressing issues and watch our political leaders fight and argue endlessly over every issue, bringing none it seems ever to a conclusion. With both sides dug in on ideological positions and no air of compromise in the discussions we merely Band-Aid the issues until it flairs up again in the future.

One can argue that the space race and exploration is a waste of tax dollars and manpower, but until we as a nation can come together on a purpose much larger than our own self interests and create a passion and optimism that allows us to see beyond life’s trials and troubles, I fear we’ll continue to be in the malaise that seems to hold us captive today.

Northway bridges in Bolton to be finished in November

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com BOLTON — Although northbound traffic on the I-87 Northway now experiences a detour near Exit 24, normal traff ic is predicted to end by November — as a soaring new span over the Schr oon River is completed.

The state Department of Transportation has been r eplacing two bridges over the Schroon, one each for northbound and southbound traf fic. The southbound Northway bridge was completed in 2010.

The new piers and foundation for the northbound bridge ar e constr ucted, and most of the steel beams ar e in place, state Department of T ransportation spokeswoman Carol Breen said July 8.

The bridge decking has yet to be completed, along with the bridge rail, paving and landscaping — all expected to be substantially complete by late fall. Finish-up work will be conducted next spring, Breen said.

The bridges being replaced were built in 1965 in the original Northway construction project.

The entire two-bridge replacement project is to be accomplished by T ioga Construction of Herkimer N.Y . for a price of $12.8 million, which Breen said was a bargain. The pr oject was put out for bid in 2009, when the economy was sour and contractors needed work, she said.

“The way the economy was back then, we got very , very good bid prices,” she said.

Starbuck is now working to r estore acres of blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, rhubarb, peaches, pears, apples, nectarines, cherries, butternuts, northern pecans, and filberts.

He’s also coping with pr oblems caused by airborne and gr ounddwelling insects, r odents, gr oundhogs, deer, turkeys and other bird s — all of whom r egard Starbuck’s as a restaurant, as many in our generation do.

Hearing about the buildings, animals, and pr oduce, visitors learned about how highly diversified the farming was.

This cider press is among many antique items to be found at the Starbuck farm, which was established in the 1790s in Chestertown by ancestors of noted area archeologist Dr. David Starbuck. A public tour of the farm was recently conducted as a feature program of the Warren County Historical Society.

HORICON — While people throughout the r egion know Point ‘O Pines Camp for Girls as an established ar ea landmark and a major employer her e, only long-term r esidents know its storied origins.

The property, now a 25-acre peninsula on the southeast side of Brant Lake, was originally an exclusive getaway destination for adults, before it was developed in 1957 into a camp for girls.

The pr operty, originally an island, was purchased from a homestead tract in 1881 by George C. White of Saratoga Springs, Brant Lake Camp director Brandon Himof f said. Brandon is the son of Jim and Sue Himoff, owners/directors of the camp.

White had a large home built on this private estate, in theAdirondack GreatCamp style, Brandon Himoff said.

Then near the end of the 19th century, the estate was turned into a r esort hotel — the Point O’ Pine Lodge — accommodating long-term vacationers, he said.

This upscale hotel was not only the site of gracious accommodations and activities including black-tie banquets and entertaining, but it also offered alcoholic beverages during the Pr ohibition era of 1920 to 1933.

Himoff said that the camp has in its archives photographs of lodgers in those bygone years, gathered for festive banquets on the porch of the boathouse overlooking the lake.

In 1925, the lodge pr operty was bought by one of the original owners of Brant Lake Camp — first by the Gersten family, t hen i t w as p assed o n t o S am

Lipman, Himoff said. Lipman’s son and daughter, Hobart “Hoby” and Norma Rosen, opened up the accommodation in 1957 as Point O' Pines Camp for Girls, developing a number of buildings on the p eninsula a s n eeded fo r t he c amp operation.

In 1984, the Rosens sold the camp to Jim and Sue Himoff, the present owners and directors.

Brandon Himof f noted that the camp’s original main house, which hosts the camp of fices, most likely incorporates the original estate Gr eat Camp built in 1881.

Other historic str uctures on the site, including The Lodge — which now pro vides r ooms for wedding participants and staf f quarters, dates back to the 1920s. Himof f said that the building, like many others on the pr operty, have been car efully r estored to r etain their

historic Adirondack camp style.

“We’ve sought to keep the r ecognition and the look,” he said, noting that observing tradition at the camp is very important.

Speaking of traditions, a good number of the present-day campers are children and grandchildren of the original Point O’ Pines attendees, he said.

The camp has sought to build valuable leadership and life skills in the campers — about 300 per year — while they experience a lot of fun and for ge life-long friendships, Himoff said.

Activities include strong programs in tennis, water sports and team sports, as well as musical theater, gymnastics and dance. Of ferings include a str ong arts and crafts program that features photographic and video skills development, he said.

Self-empowerment has always been a prime focus, he said, as well as nurturing relationship skills.

The camp now includes a 375-acr e farm nearby that hosts horseback riding, wilderness adventur es, a woodsy cross-country fitness trail, organic gardening and a farm-to-table cooking program for the campers.

The camp directors’ efforts have been hailed by their campers. Alumni of the camp have stayed well connected with the camp, Himof f said, noting that a new Facebook gr oup has started up in the last several weeks. In the first seven days of the Facebook gr oup’s existence, he said, 215 former campers joined and shared treasured memories of experiences at Point O’ Pines.

“We have a lot of camp alumni who are very involved,” he said.

This week, she sent the newspaper another letter , asking for a further clarification, following a re quest by the squad’s medical director, Dr. Girling.

The keynote speech was delivered by local VFW member Bill Linton, who serves on the monument project committee.

Linton noted that 600 names of those serving in the U.S. military over the years had alr eady been gathered by the monument committee, and the names are to be inscribed on the granite monuments of the memorial. All those who served in the U.S. military and wer e honorably discharged — living or deceased — ar e eligible to be listed, whether engaged in combat or not.

“When this is completed, you will see many names of family members, friends and neighbors on this monument,” he said. “And when people come her e to our town and r ead these names, they will know that our town has paid its lives for our country and its citizens' liberties.”

In an ode to military service, Linton spoke at length of small-town soldiers, describing their attributes and commitment to training and combat.

“Strong men and women have and do stand guar d against those who would take away our fr eedoms,” he said. Honor them – let's engrave their names in Adirondack granite forever for all to see!”

consists of four granite monuments, 6 feet by 6 feet, bearing the names of local veterans — between 600 and 1,000 soldiers. The memorial includes a br onze statue of the Fallen Soldier along with six flags between the granite stones, representing the dif ferent branches of U.S. service. It also featur es a lar ge U.S. flag.

The town of Chester board has appr oved the memorial’s placement, straddling the entrance sidewalk near the municipal center ’s front entrance.

At the gr oundbreaking, Bert Britt of Schr oon Lake sang a r ousing, passionate version of the patriotic country anthem, “God Bless the U.S.A.” Tracy Evans, injur ed in Mideast combat, intr oduced the notables attending the ceremony.

Evans was seriously wounded when he was escorting a general in Iraq in 2004 and an IED exploded.

The audit report called for the town to r egularly resolve deficits in operating fund balances, to adopt realistic budget estimates, to properly r ecord and pay back inter -fund loans, and to establish a system of equitable pay and benefits for employees.

While town boar d members, including Town Supervisor Frank McCoy have stated that all these issues have been substantially resolved, some townspeople, including members of the Lake Geor ge Citizens’ Group, have called independent oversight.

McCoy said Monday that McKr ell, who

Christian praised those who worked to establish the monument.

“This is a testament to a great community ef fort to recognize our war her oes,” Christian said. “The memorial will serve as a fitting er minder of the gr eat sacrifices of the many men and women who have served our great country.”

Emcee and monument committee member Harry Bollback asked for the citizens to contribute money towards the project.

“May it forever stand as a memorial for liberty ,” he said.

The memorial pr oject is projected to cost $65,000, and mor e than $30,000 of the needed $65,00 has to date been raised. The pr oject committee consists of Bollback, Bill Linton and Joe Slattery.

“There’s no conflict of interest or ‘buddybuddy’ system here,” he said.

Board member Vinnie Crocitto urged that she be hir ed to put some lingering public concerns to rest. He said that in the past, she had straightened out financial problems she had uncovered.

“I know she’s qualified,” Cr ocitto said.

“She got the town back on track.”

‘Shooting Star’ is simply stellar Review by Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com GLENS FALLS — Adirondack Theatr e Festival’s pr oduction of Shooting Star, a play by veteran playwright Steven Dietz, was well-received Saturday by a near-capacity audience at the Charles R. Wood Theater.

The comedic drama deserved the hearty applause it received and the positive comments shar ed among theatergoers after the performance.

The show centers on two middle-aged travelers, decades ago college-age lovers, who r econnect when they ar e stranded in an airport during a snowstorm.

James Crawford, Diana Sheehan Their bittersweet reunion examines the effect of time, aging and change on r elationships and lifestyles as the characters — once both devout liberals, but now espousing conflicting views — r eminisce, exchange barbs, reflect on their lives,

and yes, intertwine in the airport lobby floor.

Diana Sheehan and James Crawford wer e the perfect choice for the two-person cast, as their synergy is simply electric on stage.

Sheehan portrays a middle-aged, freewheeling hippie, and Sheehan is an uptight sales executive. Both characterizations ar e right on tar get, and full of energy that makes the play sparkle.

Whether portraying the awkward moments of meeting, the r evelations of past secrets between the lovers, or the unspoken angst of the old r elationship’s outcome, Sheehan and Crawford are pitch-perfect.

The pr oduction r uns through Saturday, July 16.
