Joan, Tracy, and a walk on the High Line

I walked and walked yesterday.

I started with Joan for about 4 miles, then took the LIRR in to the city to meet Tracy.  We walked the High Line ... something I have wanted to do for a while. 

"The High Line was built in the 30s, as part of a massive public-private infrastructure project called the West Side Improvement. It lifted freight traffic 30 feet in the air, removing dangerous trains from the streets of Manhattan's largest industrial district. No trains have run on the High Line since 1980." Today it's a wonderful walk 30 feet above the streets of NYC. FUN! (I have pictures but they are refusing to load! Oh well.)

That mint pictured above came in handy on the trip home from the city.  I was feeling tired and hungry (even though I had an awesome brunch at the Moonstruck Diner with TY.) When I got back to Port, I walked home from the station (another mile or two ...)

It was a busy day ... and my dogs were sore this morning ... but ...

It was worth it!
