Description

Guess where I was yesterday!!!

My daughter had a field trip to Ellis and Liberty Island in the middle of the Hudson River USA. I had the pleasant company of 9 eighth graders, 1 boy and 8 girls. I have to say they were very well behaved and a lot of fun.

Great shot, Paul. My Grandmother use to tell me about the view as they came in from Italy. She would end her story with...
