New York, N.Y.

"Something began me...

53rd Street & 6th Avenue

and it had no beginning:

Florence Schoenborn Gallery - MoMA

something will end me...

Rustic Pavillion - Central Park

and it has no end."

Carousel - Central Park near 66th Street

-Verse from Carl Sandburg's The People, Yes 1936

We spent three wonderful days in New York City in celebration of my parents' 50th wedding anniversary. The city was a beauty to behold. Although it was cool and wet, it did not rain, and at times mist hung low over the buildings. In Central Park the ginkgo trees dropped their magnificent leaves, blanketing everything in a flaming yellow carpet.
