If you've only got the one day, you'll only see a piece of one of those wonderful places and it can be frustrating. But this way you got a nice overview of the city as well as visiting "the lady" and Ellis Island.<br /><br />Lori in VALorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17784227776529761679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-87000817066487362712009-04-29T20:09:00.000-04:002009-04-29T20:09:00.000-04:00Ah Bonnie...thanks for those pics of Ellis Island!...Ah Bonnie...thanks for those pics of Ellis Island!!

But you get more done than any 10 women I know so I guess you have earned a little down time. Get some rest and then you will be up and running again.Gari in ALhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07695711731891676422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-16090131442109432802009-04-28T21:00:00.000-04:002009-04-28T21:00:00.000-04:00Sounds like you had a wonderful time.

As a teenager I went to the city often with friends on the subway but it sure has changed. As i grew on in years the desire to go there became less & less because of the many problems, but all in all its still the Greatest City in the WorldKayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679356609454208198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-33613225594214755672009-04-28T19:59:00.000-04:002009-04-28T19:59:00.000-04:00well, a comment on the 'I really want to be piecin...well, a comment on the 'I really want to be piecing" is - the motivation comes in the doing!! Please do not repeat that back to me, when I just can't seem to get myself doing what I know I should be or really want to be doing!! ;-) my friend did say that back to me, when I had said it to her the day before!! lol!<br />Thank-you for the pictures!! My friend just got back from a trip to New York, and loved it!! She wanted to just stay - for at least 2 months she said!!<br />I am really liking your new creation, and I am looking forward t seeing it done!!<br /><br />Glad you are home,and yes, after a work out like that one, you would feel rubbery!! Good for you getting though it, and living to tell us about it!!! Here is to flowers everywhere and being able to just be outdoors!!!Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13655217461685123025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-37939780024351170942009-04-28T19:07:00.000-04:002009-04-28T19:07:00.000-04:00I went to see the some of those places in New York...I went to see the some of those places in New York city just 2 months before 9-11, it has been awhile now since we were there and I would love to go back some day.<br />I see quilt designs on floors all the time!<br />Karen<br />http://karensquilting.com/blog/Karen - Quilts...etc.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07293429657903986492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-53159878782498265752009-04-28T18:29:00.000-04:002009-04-28T18:29:00.000-04:00yes bonnie it's a gorgeous building, i have been t...yes bonnie it's a gorgeous building, i have been there also. i loved the suitcase displays, so interesting. imagine the cacaphony when all the people were there speaking all different languages! what chaos it must have been and so frightening for so many in a strange land. i went in november and the temp was a balmy 72 degrees, day before NY marathon, gorgeous ferry ride then too...i have photos someplace i think...thanks for showing and telling!cityquilter gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16769584628450845408noreply@blogger.com
