Getting Around NYC Today

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is coming September 6th and every single car of the Grand Central Shuttle was covered with ads for it. Mary asked, I wonder how much this ad campaign costs? My thought? A lot!

Grand Central was bustling and a big free Harry Potter event these next 3 days

We waited for a second caboose

The stationary red caboose, built in 1923, is now a Train Observation Station.

We’d just left the Worthington Community Center Pool, walking across the parking lot and heading home for supper. And we heard the whistle. A train! (Click for short video)

I thought there might be two cabooses but no caboose at the end of today’s freight train. Laura was good to wait.

Spring Break in NYC

After nine hours sitting on the train from Pittsburgh and a delicious dinner, my sister and I walked five miles along the Hudson River. The northern lights were supposed to be happening between ten and two am but weren’t visible. We did see the Worm Moon (the worms are wiggling around in the warmed earth now) and the twinkling lights in the night.

Alaska – September 9, 2016

My sister and I were lucky we were in the 30% of visitors who can actually see Denali. Our first day it wasn’t visible. The highest peak in North America. This view was taken from the train headed back to Anchorage.

Freight Train During Lacrosse Game
