Thanks to Teri&Audrey for a great night’s 😴 sleep at their apartment. It really didn’t feel like I was in NYC, more like an oasis. Coffee and goodbyes as I headed out to Tenement Museum, not far from Teri’s. Blessings of people in our lives through the years are awesome! We are all connected, even when we don’t have a day-to-day connection! The Tenement Museum at 102 Orchard Street had street parking so I could use my old parking card with $35 left on it! I just browsed the museum and video, but didn’t take the tour. What a life it must have been, back in the day living in the Tenement forming your own community within the larger community. Then off to Teede’s, Teddy Roosevelt’s Birthplace at 28 East 20th St where the parking angels opened up a great spot on Broadway-thank you, angels! Teede was a gutsy, inquisitive child bothered by asthma. The video at the Visitors center was exceptionally well done, giving me a glimpse into who Teede was as a child-very interested in wildlife catching and studying mice, birds, turtles, etc.; obtaining spectacles that opened up a new view of the world; being bullied lighting a fire in him to develop his body which culminated in his winning a tournament in fighting; and a family life that inspired and encouraged him to be all he could be. Then I got some Chinese food from WoHop in Chinatown to take back to Vicki&Fritz in Montgomery, where I have been enjoying being their house guest. Another beautiful day for me to be grateful about, as are all my days at this part of my life. Tomorrow is Easter! Celebrate the freedom that Easter represents and the joy of living! Happy Easter 🐣✝️
