Summer is about to hit soooner than we realize it. Lamentably, spring always goes by so quickly. And for those of us that are older and need a summer reprieve, that season flashes quickly by. Then autumn comes and the beauty of the earth really shines through. Or […]
As a New Yorker I grew up in what is ostensibly a concrete jungle. Skyscrapers and towers dominate the skyline. At night, New York truly glows and it is a thing of beauty. I find it beautiful and have tried to instill that love into my son’s heart. […]
Stereotypes of cities abound. For many, there is the incorrect perception that New Yorkers are universally rude and unhelpful. But it just isn’t so. Don’t take my admittedly biased word for it. There are studies out there showing New Yorkers are extremely helpful. We are just rushed. We […]
