A duck of some sort skirts the still water headed north (must be that mo- ment between the incoming and outgo- ing tides). I can see houses, a small city in the distance. There’s a hint of distant hills, and even more distant mountains. A train scurries north not a half hour since the last one did the same. Things must have gotten blocked up down in the city, I think. Behind me is a small hillside, fields to the north and forest to the south. I’m facing east, of course, towards Columbia and Dutchess counties, and Connecticut and Massachusetts, along with the rest of New England. Do I feel the Catskill Mountains, Pennsylvania and Ohio and the rest of the Midwest and West behind me? Not really, only if I start to put my mind to it. A river has two sides. This idea came up at a recent meeting. The concept envel- oped much of our region’s history, as well as that of our modern politics. Son Milo tries skipping rocks.

  • Moses H. Cone Memorial Park Developed Area Management Plan
    MOSES H. CONE MEMORIAL PARK DEVELOPED AREA MANAGEMENT PLAN Environmental Assessment January 2015 i Cover Photograph Credit: Robert Clark ii iii THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK iv SUMMARY INTRODUCTION After Moses Cone’s death in 1908, his wife Bertha assumed ownership of the Moses Cone estate. To ensure the perpetual maintenance of the estate and its opening to the public after her death, Bertha Cone deeded the property to the Moses H. Cone Memorial Hospital in 1911, giving it the name “Moses H. Cone Memorial Park.” She retained the right to live at and manage the estate for the remainder of her life. Following Bertha Cone’s death in 1947, the trustees of the hospital agreed that the Blue Ridge Parkway (Parkway) would be better able to manage the estate. A deed filed for registration on January 11, 1950 transferred the Moses H. Cone Memorial Park from the Moses H. Cone Memorial Hospital to the United States of America. Under the terms of the indenture, the National Park Service assumed the obligations of the 1911 settlement and agreed to maintain a system of roads on the estate equal in extent to the system then in operation, and to develop the park in accordance with an agreed master plan, which has never been completed. This planning effort remedies that deficiency and creates a master plan for the Moses H. Cone Memorial park in compliance with the terms of indenture in the deed. By 1952 the NPS had developed a set of general development and master plan drawings to document where roads, parking areas and utilities were to be constructed.

  • We Are America's Travel Industry, A
    The Honorable Mitch McConnell The Honorable Nancy Pelosi Majority Leader Speaker of the House of Representatives United States Senate United States House of Representatives Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 The Honorable Charles Schumer The Honorable Kevin McCarthy Minority Leader Minority Leader United States Senate United States House of Representatives Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 March 20, 2020 Dear Leader McConnell, Leader Schumer, Speaker Pelosi, and Leader McCarthy: We are America’s travel industry, an economic sector that directly employs 9 million American workers and supports a total of 15.8 million jobs. The travel and tourism industry—including but not limited to transportation, lodging, recreation and entertainment, food and beverage, meetings, conferences and business events, travel advisors, destination marketers—is comprised of businesses of all sizes, but the vast majority, 83%, are small businesses. Together we are grappling with the immediate and devastating impact of the current health crisis. Furloughs of American travel workers are happening right now. Travel to and within the United States has essentially ground to a stop due to the actions needed to halt the spread of coronavirus. Aggressive financial relief is needed immediately. Taking care of our employees will always be our top priority, but the hard fact is we cannot continue supporting them through this disaster without relief. To that end, we greatly appreciate and strongly support provisions in the ‘‘Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act’’ that provide: • $300 billion for enhanced Small Business Administration (SBA) loans distributed through an expedited process and can be partially forgiven for employee retention; and • Tax relief to mitigate economic losses, including deferral of tax liability, extension of the Net Operating Loss deduction, and delay of estimated tax payments.
