Happy Father's Day!

Wishing my Dad a Happy Father's Day!  He'll always be Daddy to my sister and I, no matter how old we are!

Pier 62: All New!

It's the new Pier 62, just north of Chelsea Piers on the Hudson River. It's been under construction for awhile now, but is open. Flowers, grassy areas, tree lined paths...and a new carousel. It really completes the revitalization all the way up the Hudson to 125th Street. There is a great bike path, lots of walking areas and access to the piers all along the river.


The flowers were gorgeous, especially the purple ones.

The choice of animals seemed a little odd at first, but then I discovered that the wood carvings represent 33 animals of the Hudson River Valley.  And the roof is even green!  Rides are $2 in case you are wondering.


The fish and the turkey...

Weddings, Weddings, Weddings!

It's a busy year for weddings.  So far, we've been to Naples, FL and Ridgefield, CT...And M is taking us to Ann Arbor, MI and Berkley, CA later this year.  We ventured back to our old stomping ground in Connecticut for a dear GE friend's wedding.  We instantly connected over our dear old UVA (wahoo wah!) and kept in touch through our departure from GE. 


So much happiness, it was a great day all around.  So, as I'm still working on my photography skills, had to snap a few shots of course!  Sacred Heart Church in Connecticut: 

 K & M did lots of traveling post corporate life so had quite a few pictures.

Some may recognize this particular shot, my opportunity to play with the aperture setting...

And it's back to work...but the cool air has blown in and made for a lovely evening.  Already looking forward to next weekend!
