Spring has sprung, so it's time to get off our collectives asses and make this happen. Two things need to be determined: date and location. I have suggestions, but I'm open to others.
Location: Two immediate possibilities come to mind - Beacon and Peekskill. Both are on the Hudson Line, the former about 80 minutes from GCT, the latter about 60. Both are river towns, with a fair bit to photograph. Both are in the process of becoming post-industrial, with varying degrees of success; Beacon is a bit more Williamsburg, Peekskill is a bit more Hunts Point. Critically, both have ready access to beer. If it were up to me, I think Beacon is a bit more interesting, but I'm sure either would work fine.
Date: Looking forward from today, I can do next weekend (25-26 Apr), or 9 (Sat), or 16-17 May. If none of those work we can push further out.
Let's get planning, people. No doubt.
