Farewell to New York…

Our plane didn’t leave til 3:15 in the afternoon, so we had plenty of time to get out of the hotel. Or rather, we would have had plenty of time, but instead there was much scrambling and packing and more packing and we left our room at 11:58, two minutes before...

After the Fall…

After Mom fell and broke her shoulder walking up the stairs at the Frick Museum, and got a diagnosis and a sling at a walk-in Urgent Care, we had lots of stuff to do. We left the Medrite Lenox Hill Urgent Care at 5:00 and our final show was going to start at seven. It...

Our Fateful Walk through Central Park

Sunday afternoon in NYC, June 21st, 2026

On Sunday afternoon we hopped on a bus for the short ride down to the library. This picture is funny to me because that’s what happens when you don’t quite get somebody in the frame. Oops, sorry, Mom. We walked through the library and out the side door...
