Narps Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Here are a few pics of the Camellias I have in my backyard. I have one on either side of the patio and they have grown and done really well over the years since I planted them. They bloom very late after fall and going into winter. Love these guys... http://s24.postimg.org/m6f8dcwn9/20151030_174936.jpg http://s14.postimg.org/a8hy48o8h/20151102_134743.jpg 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost look like they're made out of tissue paper. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverick Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I was in NYC over the weekend. I only took a couple of pictures, though.

blueschica Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 What beautiful weather you had for visiting!! Thanks for the photos of the Flatiron building, I love it! I have a replica for my Christmas village that we set up some years when we get organized enough to get the stuff out! :D 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueschica Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 You have a replica Flatiron for a Christmas village? JELLY! I'll have to try to find a photo! We made a family trip to Manhattan one time (a few times actually) but I (apparently) wouldn't shut up about the architecture of the Flatiron building or the Brooklyn Bridge that day. It has been kind of a family joke since, including the gift of the building . . . . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually drove SOUTH on the FDR yesterday from the upper east side, and saw many bridges, including the 59th Street Bridge (feelin' groovy,) and the Brooklyn Bridge (Saturday Night Fever!) I never guessed I would have ever made that drive, but I'm so glad that I did! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never guessed I would have ever made that drive, but I'm so glad that I did! That sounds awesome! I love to see how different bridges are suspended! I wouldn't know how to drive there, for sure. People from this area usually take the train, a bus trip for the day, or drive to the NJ ferry terminal and take the ferry over to Manhattan. It's so cool to see the Brooklyn Bridge. It is a marvel of engineering. The supplies were brought there by horse and wagon, and it was built with only the most basic of power tools; mostly hand tools, shovels, and dynamite.

Just a snapshot, so I couldn't quite do what I wanted. Hope you can see the 75 year old spruce trees behind these people's home! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
