Family Photo Album - Spring 2011

The purpose of this blog is to keep family and friends updated on our whereabouts and activities.  Since the blog may be accessed by anyone, anywhere who is searching the Internet we try to maintain some security by not publishing full names and exact locations. We prefer this to Face Book!

Here is a family album of how we have been enjoying the Spring of 2011, graduations, proms, concerts, confirmations, birthdays, family visits and Father's Day.  Enjoy the view !!!!

                                          Mets strategy session over, now, play ball!

John exchanged a pint of blood at the RVC Blood Bank for these seats!

A stroll through the center field plaza for fun, food and games.

Strolling the Brooklyn Bridge

New York City's photography super store  B&H Photo conducted an organized "photo shoot" on the Brooklyn Bridge.  Seven "way points" were set up so photographers could take advantage of unique opportunities to interact with special guest photographers, models, props and the spectacular views.
Several hundred people took part and Connie and John were there too!


Take a look at some of Connie's and John's photos of that afternoon.
