Past and future
I messed up a bit. So much time has passed since my New York trip that I feel odd finishing up my trip report, and now that I have another trip on the horizon I'm even less likely to finish the story. I'll try to anyway, of course. The trip was far too affecting and life-altering in all the best ways to not provide at least vague sketches of my days there, and now that I've uploaded most of my photos I'll just let the pictures guide the narrative which, for me, is a helpful crutch.
I'll also talk about trip #2 in the next post. Yes... when given another week off so soon after the previous one, I do choose to return to New York. I don't see a problem here. The difference, though, is I'm taking the scenic route, so to speak, and I'm driving myself.
More to come.
