New York City and Christmas

FOX SQUARE
FOX SQUARE

2023 Christmas! Nothing like Christmas in NYC. Christmas may be over but the time we spent in NYC at Christmas is never over. We did our usual visits, see the tree at Fox Square, then off to Rockefeller Plaza.

ROCKERFELLER PLAZA

But the most important visit we did this year was bring my friend, Joanne, to Macy’s SantaLand.

OMG! She has never been to Macy’s SantaLand. Had to fix that….

I was happy to bring the joy of Macy’s SantaLand to my friend, and it is always a pleasure being in the city at Christmas time. NYC always gets us in the Christmas Spirit…its the match to our holiday joy,

Stouts

and after the city sites we always capture a HO! HO! HO! night…

Time of the Season

HAPPY NEW YEAR! 2024!!!

Oh, boy! We made it to 2024…What will the new year bring? No one really knows. That crystal ball has not been created. Maybe there is an AI for that…But I do know this much, the new year will bring more to our lives. Be it good or be it bad. How we respond to these events will determine, not the outcome, but our attitude towards the unexpected.

May the New Year bring not what you want but what you need, even when things around you seem hopeless and pray for those who have less and pray for those who have more…I guess, just pray!

“For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.” 
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
