Julie Huge supporter of all you do! My mom was a driving force behind my beliefs in the environment and how it should be protected for all generations. She has been gone 9 years this month, but I know she is watching over 'her river' and smiling at the progress Scenic Hudson has achieved. "Ro" 1945-2000
