Outside NY for the 25th Street Armory...

We have trekked down to our "staging area" *laughing* outside NY for the 25th Street Armory Show this weekend. We are staying at the Marriott in Tarrytown (which used to be the site of the Westchester Antiquarian Book Fair). This hotel is great for several reasons, parking is free, it is a quick run into the city, it is generally very nice and, best of all, the General Manager is a serious bookman.

Tomorrow we run in early for a breakfast at the Harvard Club and then to setup at 10am at the Armory (25th and Lexington). We will be staying at the Hotel Giraffe right next door the other armory. While it is a great hotel on basically all fronts, the fact that I can pull out of the Armory after dropping off my stuff, run the block and leave my car with the valet at the hotel makes it...for those few moments...the greatest place on earth.

Hope to see some of you tomorrow or Saturday. More to follow.
