Page in my Trippin' 8x10 mixed media album

When I make random pages I really don't have a plan.

Shocking I know.

But I love to be surprised when I'm done.

So this page turned out to be quite patriotic.

Using some modeling paste I used my TH star stencil.

And then watercolors in the "red and blue" category.

Since I had NO photos to go with I decided to "jack" my

son's amazing photos of NYC that he took

dangling out of a helicopter because that's how he rolls.

Like Nick Collins visuals on FB.

When I grow up I wanna take photos like this.

So using some TH labels (need more) and word stickers.

AND I hand drew the NYC letters.

I know you're suprised.

Anyway, poor NY is having a tough time and need our prayers.

The Festival of San Gennaro - Little Italy NYC

Took a ride to the train, to hop the subway to walk

a few blocks to Little Italy to the festival where the streets

are lined with all kinds of yummy food.

 Our pals Peggi and Lester who graciously let us camp

in their yard hung out with us on the streets of Little Italy.

 Nothing screams Italian like the colors on this building.

 Just a few of the sights, sounds and smells of all this 

yummy food.

 One of each???

 Made a new friend. LOL!

 Forgot my hat.

 This is the statue of Januarius, Bishop of Benevento and

people stopped to pay their respects.

 While we were in NYC and catching the

train at the WTC we decided to go to the 911 Memorial.

 A lot has changed since we were there, the trees

have grown and as well as the crowds.

 Lots of neat things.

Love this art work.

And there's our motely crew.

 George, Robin Peggi, Lester and Tom

The Jersey sky line in the front and NYC in the back.

It's a cool skyline.

It was fun. 

It would've been more fun if there weren't so many

people involved. LOL.

BIG crowd.

The food was terrific, however, there was a

seriously lack of facilities.

And I had my first gelato. It was delish!
