Central Park on a Sunday afternoon ...

A quiet stroll through Central Park on July 5, 2009

You might think people were just hanging out at the big fountain...
(Nope)



There were buskers doing gymnastics to the rhythm of hip-hop.
(They're surrounded by the crowd)

But, others were enjoying the fountain...



Bethesda Fountain/Civil War Monument





And many were enjoying the lake.

Some in gondolas...





And others, brought out their toy-boats...



(okay.... it's radio-controlled, so maybe it deserves an upgrade from 'toy')





And of course, all were sharing the lake with the ubiquitous rowboats.



Then, on to the solitude of "The Rambles." Created with that in mind... solitude as you walk the meandering paths that never go where you think they will. A good place to get lost (for real) and very, VERY quiet. (And we STOPPED taking pictures!) Til we saw the Oak Bridge...





And as the city looms ahead ... hovering over the lake...







We know we're "out-of-the woods"! Cause there's the top of the Natural History Museum as it peeks over the trees ...



We're back! To the hustle, the bustle.... the noise of the city...

July 4th Tea Party - Rockland County (New City, NY) pictures and short video

(scroll past pictures for short video)




New City, Rockland County, New York! Many Patriots came out July 4th to show support for our Country and to DEMAND accountability from our elected Representatives.




Gathering of Eagles ( NY) was there




Petitions were signed






MUCHO good spirits abounded






It was a BEAUTIFUL Day




May God continue to Bless America and Keep her STRONG.



We shall overcome President Hussein and Company and his threats of "change"only if we continue to come together in praise of America and to DEMAND transparency and accountability.






America! She's here 233 years. We have survived. Don't let it end with the BHO-Soros- Pelosi/Reid insurgency.



We must do more than just come out for the next Tea Party. ACTION!! NOW!



As those in New City demonstrated on July 4, 2009.




America! TAKE HER BACK! One day at a time, but.... Take Her Back!



(for the children)



(a short video)
As the petitions were signed some of our younger Patriots stood proudly and let their voices ring out: Come to the Tea Party!



God Bless America. 233 years and going strong if we FIGHT for what is Right!
