I arrived back from New York this morning.
(So please excuse me for not getting around to visit you yet…)
One of the highlights of my visit – apart from all the wonderful people I met –
Was a trip up to the Top of the Rock (Rockefeller Centre)
Where blue sky seems to bow down and kiss you.
As we reached the observation deck on the 67th floor,
The sun created the perfect canopy for the Empire State Building.
Going up two more levels
Gave breathtaking views of New York floating in a haze of sunbeams.
For more great views, please visit: Skywatch.

I tried turning word verification off recently, and within a few hours had comments that included links to porn and malware. Unfortunately I’ve had to turn it back on (and even with that, I’ve had almost a dozen spam comments in the last 24 hours). I will probably need to go to comment approval, and at that point I may just give up on blogging altogether as my time is too limited.
