Saturday, we went to see The Alice In Wonderland Follies, choreographed by Keith Michaels, who we have had the pleasure to meet on a couple... Continue Reading →
Wow! The entertainment talent of New York City continues to amaze us, and tonight was especially fun. Antsy to go somewhere, we decided to try Birdland, a jazz club in Midtown.

Spring has been trying to nudge out winter, but old Winter has been putting up a fight. Saturday it broke even with bright sunshine and cold wind. Not all we were hoping for, but too nice to miss.

It was so foggy. How foggy was it? It was so foggy the ducks were bumping into the piers. You couldn’t see the tugboats and barges just beyond the end of the piers, much less the coast of New Jersey across the Hudson. JAM wanted to take pictures in the fog, so we bundled... Continue Reading →
