I am in a New York state of mind these days. My elderly parents still live in the house I grew up in and I am looking forward to spending some time with them in a couple of weeks, so, I found this image taken last spring when I was with them. The seashore is my favorite place to be, and, in my humble opinion, it doesn’t get any better than the southern shores of Long Island. Can’t wait to see you mom and dad.
It’s that time of year again… you know… where I go through the images from this past year… delete lots that I will never look at again (or don’t want to look at again) and find a few that ask me to take a second look. This is one of them. Taken earlier this year when I was in New York with my oldest son, visiting my elderly parents. It was a cold, cloudy, damp and dark day… but it didn’t matter. I was sharing time with my son and my dear parents…
That’s the official name that I given this architectural feature. Taken in Manhattan, NY.
5 Av and 53 St where, apparently, no one can find a scraper, or, a can of paint. Gotta love New York! This will be my last post for a couple of weeks. Heading out to St. Lucia for a missions trip with 29 high school students from our church’s youth ministry. Looking forward to partnering with the Evangelical Church of the West Indies for a 5th time and seeing old friends as well. Be back soon WordPress family!
The restoration project at St. Patrick’s Cathedral is on a colossal scale that is only matched by the beautiful cathedral itself.
Bethpage is a town on Long Island, and apparently, this amazing sand sculpture as well! I do believe that the dragon in this sculpture is called Lignum, who can be seen flying around WordPress Land. 😉
You have the famous (or infamous) subways of New York, which have been known to provide a place of residence for medium sized dogs (a.k.a., New York subterranean rats with a New York attitude), and you have this: a passageway beneath the streets of lower Manhattan. I think this is a preview of what is to come when the new World Trade Center Transportation Hub is complete.
Another image of St. Patrick’s from my recent trip to NY. I hope to see this wonderful space after the work is completed!
St. Patrick’s Cathedral, in New York, is a magnificent example of Neo-Gothic architecture. It was dedicated in 1879 and is currently undergoing a massive restoration for both the interior and exterior. The amount of scaffolding – on the inside and out – is absolutely staggering.
One more shot from my recent trip back home to New York.
