When we decided to go to New York City to see Hazmat Modine we also started looking for other things to do there. I saw an article in the NY Times about things to do this weekend in NY City. One of the suggestions was an exhibit opening at the The Met, The Metropolitan Museum […]
Today was all about Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. We Ubered to the Ferry in Jersey City and bought tickets to Ellis Island to the Statue of Liberty and finally to Battery Park at the southern end of Manhattan. It was Sunday so we knew it would be crowded and that this would […]
Our plan was to go into the city and start our day at Times Square, enjoy a part of Central Park, then go to Greenwich Village, where Terra Blues is, get a bite to eat then head over to Terra Blues and see Hazmat Modine. We Ubered to Times Square from our hotel. The Lincoln […]
On our way to New York City, about a 6 ½ hour trip. As we like to do we took the scenic route avoiding the interstate and tolls as much as we could. From Cranberry Lake we took State Hwy 3 east to Tupper Lake then State Hwy 30 south to Long Lake where we […]

We immediately drove to the train station, tucked Slinky into her bed in the van and bought round trip tickets into downtown […]
