I was in New York at this time last year visiting Carrie. On the upper west side where she lived, every few blocks on Amsterdam Avenue, there was a little shack set up surrounded by fir trees. Cabins in the woods in the middle of New York. Now I know where New Yorkers get their Christmas trees. Lights were strung around them, as if an elf or Santa had moved in for a few weeks. And then one day, these small habitats were gone.
Inhabitants had surely headed back to the North Pole to start getting ready for next year!

Grandma used to take me (Donny too? John?) to the Rockettes during Christmas vacation....all dancers were the same height. I loved the show...hated my wool black-watch plaid wool coat with the black velvet color and velvet leggings and patent leather shoes! Hated the bow of my dress that dug into my back as I sat in the seat mesmerized by the dancers. Thanks for the memory, Barb!
