Central Park Boathouse


My wife wanted to have lunch in the city for her birthday. We went to the Boathouse restaurant in Central Park. It was a beautiful fall day… perfect for a gondola ride. The gondola was made in Italy, and donated to the city. The gondolier was quite informative, and was full of facts and trivia about the park. I hear he will also sing on request.

Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome Visit





I made my visit to Old Rhinebeck on Oct. 8th. The weather was perfect and my son and I had a great time. I even took my son up for a bi-plane ride. I noticed a little bit of a decline in the operations there this year. Some of the classic planes were not flying, and the shops had a glaring lack of shirts and other nick-nacks. After I got back, I did a little research and found this thread over at theaerodrome.com. Seems like they are having some management problems, and the decline has been going on for some time. I hope that they can stay afloat… I’m sure the real estate vultures are circling where the planes should be flying. All photos were taken with a Nikon D200 and either a 300mm f/4 or 18-35mm lens.

I am using a flash plugin called FlashFader for the slide show. Let me know if you like it.
