my happy place

Just love visiting my elderly parents in New York and, going to my happy place…

The second post from a walk on the boardwalk at Jones Beach. The Boardwalk Cafe is a recent fine addition to the Art Deco architecture (Jones Beach was created in 1929).

My wife and I are back in New York to visit my mom. It is her 90-ish birthday. I am not allowed to know her actual age! Naturally we spent some time at the shore. It was a warm, breezy day. First of a few posts from my favorite place to be.

The next in a series from a beautiful, cold day at Jones Beach. Just loved these two walking by the sea, beneath the light.

Another in this series from my recent trip back home to Long Island. We just loved this sunset sail on my brother’s sail boat.

I am back home in New York visiting my family. Always glad to be able to head back to the shore.

These are taken at Robert Moses State Park.

The Robert Moses Causeway is named after the urban master builder, Robert Moses, who is responsible for much of what life looks like in New York: highways, suburbs and, state parks.

Or, what I saw when I turned around.

Sorry for the silent blog 🙂 Life has been busier than the usual crazy and, my dad recently had double bypass surgery. So, two days ago, I took a road trip back home to be with my parents. He is doing quite well and will be home tomorrow. In the meantime, hope you enjoy one of my favorite bridges in New York.

And this is what it looked like inside the Hammerstein Ballroom when we attended a worship service at Hillsong Church: great music, practical teaching, in an amazing venue.

On our recent trip to New York we visited the Hammerstein Ballroom, located in the Manhattan Center, where we attended Hillsong Church. The Hammerstein Ballroom is a beautiful venue which hosts a variety of events and productions.
