Dear WP reader,
We're on posting hiatus through the end of the week. We may post a few news items here and there, but for the most part, we'll be focusing on offline projects.
(Full disclosure: Some of those projects involve replacing the Watershed Postmobile, which has died a sudden and unexpected death, and celebrating the fourth birthday of the youngest member of the team, which is today.)
We are here in the office, and reachable by phone and online again after a brief outage yesterday. Our publisher, Julia Reischel, is taking ad inquiries for the website and our upcoming print outdoors guide.
In the meantime, if you're jonesing for a local news fix, here are a few things you should check out:
-This Weekend. It's looking particularly snazzy at the moment. There's a lot of great stuff happening around the Catskills this weekend.
-Around The Blogshed, our always-on, always-fresh grab bag of local blog headlines.
-The local media scene. It's a lot more diverse and interesting than it gets credit for. Unlike some areas, which are full of cookie-cutter newspapers all owned by the same big chain, we've got a lot of independent weeklies in the rural Catskills. Check out the Walton Reporter, the Sullivan County Democrat, the River Reporter, the Mountain Eagle and Windham Journal, the Catskill Mountain News, the Woodstock Times, the Schoharie County Times Journal, or the newest kid on the block, the teen-run Manor Ink.
Have a great weekend.
