This post covers about 2 weeks, from the first of November through my 50th birthday These are some photos around the neighborhood on November 1st. It was the day of the NY Marathon. Since I posted a bunch of marathon…
Getting to Halloween
It has been a few weeks since I made time to update you on my NY adventures and I apologize for being remiss. A week or so before Halloween I took a fun ride up the Hudson River Valley…
