A Visit to NYC

The past few weeks have been a whirlwind for me. I had been away from home for two weeks. First, I spent ten days house sitting on Balboa Island in Newport Beach and then straight from there I flew to NYC last Monday, where I spent the past week. Haven't quite been able to keep up with blogging as much lately. Prior to leaving I was busy preparing to leave - prioritizing work that needed to be done, organizing for the time spent away, never mind packing for the beach and the wintry east coast all in one. Now, just happy to be home but much to catch up on! I am sure many of you know what it's like!

Unfortunately, I do not have much to report on design wise from my trip to NYC. I did share a few highlights last year, but this year I really decided to take a break from design and just enjoy the trip which included mostly walking around and really seeing the city. Of course, everywhere you look is a monument of some type of architecture - whether a museum, a skyscraper, a bridge, or an installation in the park.

So with my iPhone in hand, I took picture after picture...

Just arriving in the city on Monday evening, took this picture from the taxi.
