Trains to/from Hudson, NY

Here is the page on Amtrak.com showing trains to/from Hudson on September 12. If you're taking the train, let me know, and hopefully I can arrange some rides from the station or a carpool, especially if several people are on the same train (e.g., the 3:15, arrives 5:15). There are many taxi companies in Hudson, and usually some waiting outside the train station when trains arrive, but if you want to reserve, Hudson City Taxi says they'd charge $15 for the trip, at (518) 822-8880‎. More taxi services here if you want to comparison shop, best bet would be to share a fare with somebody else.

Places to stay in and around Ghent

Friends who want to stay over in Columbia County asked for recommendations about places to stay in the area. Here are some ideas, with the caveat that we haven't ourselves stayed at any of these:
Kinderhook B&B, in nearby Kinderhook
The Inn at Hudson, home to the station for the Amtrak train to/from New York
The excellent Rural Intelligence website has an entire section devoted to places to stay in and around Columbia County. Ask if one of the places there sounds too far afield: the site covers not only Columbia County, but also western Massachusetts and Connecticut, so some of the places it features look great, but might be 90 minutes or more away.

Woops, small typo on the Louisville invitation

You'd think two editorial types would catch this kind of error, but we messed up: the Louisville party is on Saturday, August 29th, not the 28th as written on the printed invitation (it does say Saturday, but the actual date is incorrect). Hope this doesn't cause any confusion, nor provide the tinder for our first post-wedding argument: just whose fault this is (like, who was the last person to see the text)! Apologies...
