N is for...

...New York.

(But that's not all!)

A couple years ago, I had the opportunity to travel back east to visit Oldest Daughter, with Middle Daughter and Youngest Daughter, too. In the midst of planning, Dearest Sister choose to join the fun. For part of the trip, we ventured to New York City, the first for all of us, except, of course, for Oldest Daughter.

Oh, the things we did!
(the empire state building!)

The sights we visited!
(times square)

The people we saw!

N is also for Naked Cowboy!

We were woefully uninformed as to this 'persona'. We thought this was indeed a NYC whackjob right there in Times Square in his tighty whiteys, in the misty rain, surrounded by...grinning women willing to stand next to his naked (and what had to be clammy damp) skin.

These photos were taken from afar. We are westerners, you see, and these sorts are not to be gotten close to where we hail from.

Well, then we see this fellow everywhere! On commercials selling cars...as an M&M....suing the candy company...
At least now we know who he is.

I love New York. The energy of the place is almost overwhelming, though!

It's fun to get a city fix every once in awhile, isn't it? Looks like you had a great time and got to meet the naked cowboy up close and personal! I've never seen him though I have looked for him everytime we're out there. :)

I've not seen him either on my trips in to the city, but then again we tend to steer away from Times Square.

Even if I did see him I don't think I'd want to get too close. :)

New York, you gotta love it!

I've been to New York only when I was a kid with my grandparents. Way before the Naked Cowboy roamed the streets. If we would have come across the Naked Cowboy my grandmother would have for sure went straight up to him and told him to put on some clothes! "That's not descent!" I could just hear her say it.

I love NY. It is a crazy place. Lots of fun.
