Beautiful Blue Sky

Set against this bright blue (finally!) sky
is a Civil War memorial in Brooklyn's
Green-Wood Cemetery—which I visited for
the first time (again, finally!) last Sunday.
It pays tribute to the 148,000 Union
soldiers that NYC sent to fight the good fight.

[I haven't been to Skywatch Friday in a long time, 
but (yet again, finally!) to see more, go here.

Skywatch Friday

I'm getting on a plane tonight and
heading east—for 7 days of fun
and photography with a couple of
my fave blogpals.  I've scheduled posts
for the week ahead and will try to keep 
up a bit with my iPad.  Hope you'll 
stop by while I'm gone.
