Boy, it had changed. It had lost the charm it once held for me. Sad. I guess I saw it through 'rose colored glasses' back then.Francene Stanleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08298485336064691700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199270158927284616.post-17296576078522922742013-05-15T17:50:22.234-04:002013-05-15T17:50:22.234-04:00Oh, I love this post!

I've never been to New York City but I really want to visit there someday, and you know that I'll be one of those annoying tourists taking pictures of everything and nothing. I absolutely love your link to the apartment building lobbies. What treasures! AWESOME!

You are absolutely right that we sometimes don't appreciate what is right under our noses when we live there. A good way to be a tourist in your own town is to invite someone to visit and take them to all the "sights" I suppose. Wonderful post and I'm very curious about that chicken memoir!Suerae Steinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14533555198813916502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199270158927284616.post-51677677489893208442013-05-15T03:34:02.435-04:002013-05-15T03:34:02.435-04:00I'd venture to say that wherever you live, the...I'd venture to say that wherever you live, there are some sights worth seeing! Fortunately, I grew up in a nearby town, so coming to the town I live in now was, as a teenager, a novelty and one which gave me the opportunity to see some of the tourist attractions. This is especially nice now as most of those tourist attractions have been overshadowed by the Presidential Library which reared its less historically interesting head several years ago. Fortunately, our Historical Society sponsors a Ghost Walk every Halloween where they re-enact some of our history. <br /><br />Thank you for reminding me that one of the best places to play tourist is right where I live!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14688662981615819361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199270158927284616.post-22541053124217666772013-05-14T21:05:16.507-04:002013-05-14T21:05:16.507-04:00Ah yes, the pizza.

My second meal was in a neighborhood diner - one I intend to blog about in the future because of its distinctive nickname.bookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06589840841266507266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199270158927284616.post-23721522505092942282013-05-14T21:03:45.144-04:002013-05-14T21:03:45.144-04:00Nothing like getting advice from someone who lives...Nothing like getting advice from someone who lives where you want to visit.
