Wow! You have quite a resourceful library here Sir! Am I ever flattered that you stumbled over my blog post ;) Not as exciting as this, thats for sure. My daughter just returned from her first trip to New York City with family. It is an absolutely incredible place to visit.

NYC is certainly chock full of things to do and see, and just by showing up—which, as Woody Allen said, is 90% of success—we’ve built up the collection that you see here… :-) Thanks for visiting, and liking it!!
