'went down to the Seaport to see the tall ships this afternoon!
the masts reached high, the clouds above like full, billowing sails.
remember when we had one of your anniversary celebrations there, a brunch over Labor Day weekend?
then on a whim, walked to the Staten Island Ferry terminal on Whitehall, purchased a bunch of tickets and took a roundtrip ride, just to say we had done it? Abigail and Charlotte were just little girls then!
today, the Tin Building is a beautifully restored, Jean Georges gourmet marketplace. i think you would approve and i will have to get Mom there to enjoy it firsthand.
i bought olive oil and sampled some shrimp, then wandered over to Fulton Street to browse the lovely new Mcnally Jackson bookstore before coming back uptown on the 1 train.
at sunset, i found you again in the golden sky above the Hudson.
thank you for giving me this magical day of new adventures and special memories.
xoxo
