Trip to the Island
A small group of knitters planned a meeting on Governors Island. I like going to the Island - it is such a beautiful place! Usually I would go there at least once a summer, but that didn't work out last summer because of COVID. So I was happy to join the group. It is a short ferry trip across part of the Hudson River. The Island has a stunning view of Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty.
The evening before, I made a pair of boys shorts and decided to take Thomas with me to enjoy the Island and take some pictures. Anthony got a model boat last Christmas, but unfortunately he couldn't go, since he desperately needs restringing.
For the shorts that I sewed, I used a pants pattern and cropped the length, but I'm not sure I like how they fit. They looked better after ironing, but I will look for different pattern next time I want to make a pair.
Checking the map
A very tall flower.
Thomas took his camera, but I didn't take mine.
We discovered a beautiful new picnic area!
I regretted not taking my camera with me. The pictures that I took with the phone are good, but they are not the same as with a camera.
Bike ride? no, another time.
Being curious about the ferry.
Coming home on the train.
I love his face in this picture.
