Night flight…

There is something humbling about flying into New York City and seeing the never-ending buildings that blanket all the land in sight. It turns magical when it is dark and all you see is lights as far as the eye can see. It truly makes you realize the vast amounts of people in such a concentrated area and all that entails for a society, city and a lifestyle. However, for a far more simplistic take on the view, it also creates a pretty nice photograph….

See you in 2013!

… we do live in New York…

I’ve seen the construction of the 9/11 memorial from the very beginning and it has been a slow process… For a while I wasn’t sure if ANYTHING was ever going to start being constructed for the memorial. Finally however construction began. And although it is far from complete I got a chance to take a tour of the 9/11 memorial.



Although it isn’t complete I highly recommend a visit.

It’s getting spooky out…

… as in the weather. I mean it’s Halloween too – but seriously – the weather is the most scary stuff I’ve seen in a while.

Here is a photo from our drive back from upstate on Saturday afternoon… this should NOT be happening in October!

So what better way to celebrate the first snow? Hunkering down in a bar of course…

Elixars...

Wine by candlelight

bathroom mirror.

The way out...

Cheers to that.
