New York is the most resilient city there is. We all love New York! I know they will recover from this and be stronger than ever. There is truly no city like it. Thanks for sharing the photos and the information.
Beautiful post, and thanks for taking the time to give us all of this information. I have family in NYC, we stayed in touch the entire time. Very scarey and and a very long time to clean this up and recover now.
I love NY street Vendor food. As a kid, I would get the warm chestnuts with my mom while looking at the holiday windows.
Great way to reach out to people struggling with the storm. We Floridians know it all too well!
bless you, Lora. (and my Wordless Wednesday posts always have words as well…)
these are great shots of my favorite city on earth… my heart is breaking for everyone in NYC and everywhere else – such devastation, it’s staggering.
Thoughts and prayers for everyone affected by this monster of a storm. Thanks for providing great information on ways to assist.
Beautiful post, Lora! And thank you so much for sharing all the information!
