Wordless Wednesday (Soaking Sandy Edition)

One of my must-sees during my September 2012 trip to New York City was The Highline.The Highline is a public park built on an historic freight rail line elevated above the streets on Manhattan’s West Side.*

Beautiful views……

Deliberately designed plantings……

What’s not to love about a NYC plank?

More beautiful views……

Kevin (I think that was his name!) hard at work keeping everything beautiful.

He took time out to explain a lot about The Highline.

I think Hurricane Sandy created quite a bit of repair work for Kevin and his co-workers.

      Amen……… I keep thinking what a perfect time it was for me that weekend. (Although that weekend there was a crazy storm that threatened 50 mph winds and stuff……..just a crazy fall!!).

      I hope the same thing!! New York holds a very dear place in my heart; it’s going to be a challenge recovering (but they will!!).

    I have never been to NY but I hope to make it there one day. My thoughts are with everyone who has been hit by this terrible storm

      Molly – I hope you get to go. And when you do, divert yourself a little from the Touristy beaten path. That’s where at least half the magic is. 🙂
