A long, long time ago, in a galaxy far away, you could actually drive near the Capitol Building in Washington D.C. Not so much these days

Yesterday, one of my daughters gave me the terrific Christmas present of a Freedom sweatshirt. A little bit of Christmas ugly sweater mixed with some BTC lore, how could you go wrong?

New York is such a beautiful city, if you like architecture which I do. New York is simply full of amazing structures that one may never actually see every single one

It seems like a long time ago now, but there was a great trip that we had as a family that centered around the beautiful city of Destin, Florida. Highly recommended

Here's another view into the pit that once was the site of the 2 World Trade Center Towers. The hole was so deep that water would actually leak in from the Hudson River underground

Here is a pic of the temporary subway stop that was in place during the construction of the Freedom Tower, formerly where the World Trade Center Towers stood

We were fortunate enough to be able to purchase a matching color Yukon XL to tow behind our motor coach. Towing is a sweet option, highly recommended for RV life.

In a former life, before the CFC of October, 2008, my wife and I owned a very nice motor coach We took many, many fun trips in it. I look forward to returning to RV life soon.

Here's a pic of the New York Stock Exchange located on Wall Street in Lower Manhattan in New York City.

This shot was taken from the 14th floor of the Millenium Hilton in NYC on March 1st, 2002. It is looking into the pit that once was The World Trade Center.

Here's a another perspective of the Capitol Building in Washington DC. Many inaugurations have taken place at this spot

This photo was taken from the Hudson River not long after 9/11/2001, Friday March 1st, 2002 to be exact. As you can see, the towers are not behind the Winter Garden in this photo. What a big hole.

This was a cold and dreary January day when this picture was taken. But, conditions allowed me to get a centered photo of the Capitol across the water

This is a painting of General George Washington Resigning His Commission. This painting is hung in the rotunda of the Capitol Building in Washington DC

Here's the painting titled, "The Signing of the Declaration Independence." This is one of the many paintings in the Capitol rotunda in Washington DC

Here's a shot of the Empire State Building Lobby taken back in back in 2000 on one of my many trips with my wife to New York City

On one of the many, many trips that I was able to accompany my wife to New York City, we were able to attend a taping of the great show, the Late Show with David Letterman. It was a ton of fun and I am

In one of the many, many times that I took my wife to New York City, we had the opportunity to see the great Broadway play, Aida

On one of my many trips to Boston, I took this shot of the back side of Faneuil Hall. My favorite part is that it is attached to Quincy Market which is always an amazing place to find good eats

It's really hard to comprehend just how big the Mall is in Washington DC. The Washington Monument rises majestically to the sky in the middle of the Mall then to the East is the stately U.S. Capitol Building
