Too bad we didn’t run into Rachel Maddow while we were there…

This is the place Washington said farewell to his officers after the Revolution.  They have a piece of his hair, some teeth, and a portion of his coffin.  Also, the NY Sons of Liberty met here.  It occurs to me that, maybe, this isn’t as exciting for other people as it is for me.  Moving on…

Jon looking at an exhibit at the incredible museum/art gallery City Reliquary in Brooklyn.  If you find yourself in NYC this is worth the trip, it reminded me a little of the Church of Elvis except way less crazy/scary.

Inside Macy’s on Harold Square.  I was so excited to get here, I watch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade religiously, and it was amazing to see the part of the street with the logo painted on it.

I also spent some time playing around with my film camera on this trip– I’ve got to get them developed sometime this week.  Its been a long time, too long, since I played around with film.  I always forget that it really does look so much better.  When Ariel was in town for the inauguration I dusted the big film camera off and like those photos so much more than the digital camera images (like this one, so much better on film).
