Here's a writeup today in THE SARATOGIAN -- https://www.saratogian.com/news/local-news/caff-lena-set-to-celebrate-60th-anniversary-thursday-with-festivities/article_94b88b1c-99df-11ea-b28e-374a5152fdf9.html
I was a waitress and bread baker there back in 1975-1976 and go back every year to perform -- this time it will be on a screen, but we've all recorded special songs/stories having to do with the Caffe Lena -- mine is 6-1/2 minutes long, an interesting story and a new version of a song I wrote 45 years ago.
Yes, 45 years ago. How is that possible? Who knows where the time goes?
Stay safe!
Stay sane!
Stay connected!
