Liberty
We spent some time downtown this week. Went to see some of Bill's friends , ate lots of Mafei's pizza (in midtown) and went to Battery Park.
This statue was in the plaza of the world trade center.
I just can't bring my self to take pictures at ground zero.
There isn't much to see and quite honestly I get pretty emotional when I'm there.
Then, we got on the ferry to Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty
The whole time on the island I was singing "America the Beautiful" and "The Star Spangled Banner" (in my head).
Seriously.

Montauk
So today we journeyed to the Eastermost tip of Long Island.
Montauk is home to New York's oldest lighthouse.
It was commissioned by George Washington.
It took for ever to get there because of the traffic flowing into the Hamptons this time of year.
It was pretty foggy but we had a good time nonetheless....

Begins
Begins….
13 hrs on the road and ½ way there.
Damn, they need to consolidate their road construction.
No pictures yet.

Arrived safely. Driving in NYC is quite an experience.
Still feel like I’m moving.
Scared.
Excited.
Tired.
Jackson Pollock makes me well up. Never has been my favorite, but something in the motion and energy of those big paintings…….
I saw “Persistence of Memory” by Salvador Dali
It is very small.
