They may be right.
Nothing stunning here in upstate New York - just everyday "clear and so crisp you think the light will cut your eyes". Well, that and a white dot right above the trees - that is the moon.
While I am at it, how about some historic treasures of the small city where I work?
The church from afar. This was designed by the same architect that designedTrinity Church in downtown New York City. The building dates from 1858.
Such as this historic building, the Strand.
Isn't it sad when treasures rot away?

Love the pix!
ReplyDeleteNothing is more heartbreaking than beautiful period buildings just falling to pieces. I do understand that sometimes they are simply salvageable. But that just makes me cry, too!
ReplyDeleteClear days are also lovely!
ReplyDeleteI know I'd like to see old buildings restored and put to use. Maybe someday.
ReplyDeleteBlue skies are beautiful when all you've seen are gray clouds for days. (Although, we're getting some sun today. Finally.)
Yes, it really is sad when these old buildings sit vacant. The Strand looks like a cool old building, as does the Press Building. Enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteI find the Press Building interesting because I spent my working life in the printing and newspaper business. I agree, though, it is sad when old buildings sit vacant.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly found some lovely blue skies, and I have a photo of the moon just about that shape but with a darker sky for SkyWatch this week.

Great photos, I really like the pics of the old buildings. I have been known to put clouds in an otherwise featureless sky. True confessions!!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots! Love knowing history about towns and love it even more when the towns keep these old building and maintain them. Thanks for sharing.
