Skywatch Friday

Image
We had a few gray skies in New York this week. These photos were taken on Riverside Drive and approximately W90th street. Apart from some rainy times this week, there have also been some great New York blue skies! Above, Chapel, Columbia Presbyterian Medical School, Washington Heights. blossoms in Inwood Park, New York. and some daffodil skies from Inwood Park again. The Cloisters were arising from the fog at the end of the street. Almost a European scene this morning here in Inwood, NY. And a flock of birds startled me as I was walking the baby this morning! I just love this photo as the sun was shining through the leaves of the tree. I hope you have enjoyed your stroll with me through some of the streets and parks of New York. If you would like to see other skies for around the world, please click on the skywatch icon over in the sidebar.

Last Sunday we visited the Cloisters down the road. An adjunct of the Met. Unfortunately my camera batteries died and this was one of the last photos I got there then. Then a baby came along and stole the limelight.. Today I decided to jump on the train and go to church. So I caught the number 1 train downtown to Jo and Andrew's church at 86th Street. This is the view you get of SPSA as you come up out of the subway. It is an interesting church, as there are several church communities worship there, including a Jewish congregation. There is Feed the Hungry Campaign that operates there, giving food to the homeless, as well as a women's shelter that gives a bed to homeless women overnight. What I really love is this banner .. HOW GOOD IT IS WHEN BROTHERS AND SISTERS DWELL TOGETHER IN HARMONY. After coffee hour, some good friends of Jo and Andrew's came along on the trip home to visit. Naomi enjoyed a cuddle of Liam. Lovely for Jo and Andrew to have them visit, o...
