A happy place
I visited the fabric district in New York yesterday. Actually I set out a bit early, it was Saturday and some shops are not open because its a religious holiday…. others opened at 11.00 am. I set out at 9.30. But you know, wandering is wonderful. You find all sorts of wonderful things. I came…

I think she has an eye problem !!!

Graduation Day
