The Good. The Random. The Fun. v. 36

The Good:
I stumbled upon The Sphere in Liberty Park, overlooking the WTC Memorial Park. The Sphere used to sit in a large fountain in the plaza outside the original Twin Towers. It miraculously survived (but was heavily damaged) in the 9/11 attacks and was unearthed in the rubble in the days after the attacks. A few years ago, it was finally brought to the new park to overlook where it once stood and survived. A true sign of NYC rising from the ashes.

The Random:
I can't tell if these are cute...weird...or just...?

The Fun:
And the 23-24 school year is officially underway! Here's to a great year!

    Thank you for the party. I've been looking for new parties and blogs to join since so many are disappearing these days. That sphere sculpture is so touching and motivational
