Marsha, my wife, and three of her seven sisters gathered in New York City last weekend to celebrate her sister Patty's 50th birthday and to see Patty perform a requiem as part of a Houston-area choir at New York's Carnegie Hall. Here is a shot of (l to r) Marsha, Patty from Houston), and Laurie (from Dallas) at their hotel restaurant in southern Manhattan.
In fact, three of the sisters stayed at a hotel just a block away from Ground Zero, the site of the former World Trade Center, which was bombed by jetplane in 2001, as probably just about everyone knows. The ladies visited Ground Zero, but there were no good viewing areas of the construction activity along street level. But they found a spot on the mezzanine in a financial center next door to their hotel. This spot has a viewing area from which people can watch what's going on at Ground Zero from a little higher up. Marsh took a number of photos for me, and here is one, probably her most artistic shot (she liked the marble floor shown in the foreground). The steel support in the foreground is part of a scaffold on the side of the financial center. I will pst another shot of Ground Zero in a day or two.
