the High Line in the former meatpacking district (where fast-moving freight trains once moved perilously close to pedestrians) and where we were treated to interesting preserved remnants like this:
and scenery like this:
the Chelsea Market . . .

There were rides on the subway in buses and in taxis . . . but not on any farm equipment like the front-end loader that passed us as we walked along Madison Avenue:
And then we came home to Annie (who had her legs crossed cause it takes a mighty long time for people to see so much):
It was another gloriously good day.
But you knew that.
