I spent Christmas in NYC in 2000. My family flew up there and met my dad and his family. It was the first time I had seen him in 21 years. I am a small town Kentucky boy who was amazed at the sights of the City. It was cold and everything was decorated for […]
Upon my arrival in the JFK airport, I was nervous about the New York environment as I was coming from a suburban area. My parents had paid for my airplane tickets as an early Christmas present so I had that covered. My long time friend from New York University was allowing me to stay at […]

Fall becomes my transition period from summers on the beach and the constant vacations upstate, to sipping chai tea and eating more pie. It may just be me but Autumn in New York seems to go by very fast. The next thing I know, it’s winter. I’ll usually go to Central Park at dusk and […]
