NHL Play-Off Hockey

Nothing more exciting for a child who
loves hockey than to go to a play-off game! NY Rangers vs NJ Devils in NJ!!

Time and Life Plaza

This always looks like a great fountain to wade through....no matter what the weather. It must be the turquoise bottom that elicits thoughts of tropical waters.

Poetry - The PS 166 School


School is fun, it is for everyone.

I love school, it is cool.
I love school, you can run and have some fun.

In school you can learn,
But be careful because you can also get rug burn.

Share in school and don't be a fool.
Don't drool in school
or you will be a fool.

My mom is here, oh dear!

PS 166 is nice.
No, no - fine - you can stay and play with your dice.


By Alison Giebler, age 6.
Student, PS 166 Richard Rodgers School for Art and Technology

Ducks on Terraces

She left bird seed on her seat.

The lady who was sitting there had a small dog crate, empty.

She was going to rescue a duck that had landed on an Upper East Side residential terrace. I guess the duck couldn't figure out how to get off that terrace. She said he was migrating but that New York city was not a good place for ducks, and he probably go confused. She will release him near the water so he can find his way again...after he has a snack of bird seed.

NYC in the Rain

We love NYC in the rain, especially when we can show off our new rain coats.

Thanks Nana.
