Amber loves the Conservatory Garden and the Morgan Library.
Ben (the one on the far right) gave me a wonderful paragraph that I don't want to limit by using bullets - "As for my new York loves they are rather ethnic and often vagabondish. I love swimming just as the song says, out past the breakers at rockaway beaches and lying on my back in the calm ocean in August heat. I also like bottle beach where the water laps up against two hundred year old remnants of the first African American settlement in Brooklyn. The dollar stores on Fulton street mall away down by mid wood area give the sense of being in another universe. The area just east of there is so lovely with streets that seem very much like Washington dc."
Brigham gave me the answer of what I still need to do and that was going to the Jersey Loews. I didn't realize I'd be going there to see the greatest disaster film ever.
