A Visit to The Intrepid

Dad's present for his 85th birthday: a day at the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in New York City.

Exploring the submarine Growler.

"I'm glad I was in an airborne division."




"Hey, I figured out how to turn on the engine!"


"You know, this is more comfortable than a foxhole."


"I can fit through this."


"From the outside, it looked small. How much farther do we have to go?"


"It's not as complicated as dry-cleaning equipment."




"I told you I could get through this!"


"I love sight-seeing with my in-laws."


"Our first apartment was smaller than this."

Inspecting aircraft on the flight deck.

"I jumped out of planes, but not this one."


"Just because you're enjoying this museum, don't think that war is fun."


"Why didn't they paint my picture on the fuselage?"




"It says that this was a real military aircraft."

Test-driving a chopper on the hangar deck.

"Hey, let's beat the rush-hour traffic, and take this home."


"Which one is steering?"


"She can't drive a stick-shift, but she wants to fly a helicopter!"

Raritan River Trail - Edison, NJ

A tributary of the mighty Raritan.


The noble gull surveys his realm.


Home sweet home (to a swallow).


Black buzzard. (Don't stand too still for too long.)


Robin's egg -- or jelly bean?


Going at a snail's pace.


Don't rush throught the bullrushes.


The bucolic Edison Boat Basin.


Shore looks nice.


The mighty Raritan - or the sleepy Raritan?


Cruising the Raritan.


The middle of nowhere, or the edge or somewhere?


Walter Stochel of Edison Greenways explains the area.


We're an attentive group.


"Wouldja look at that ..."


Gazing from the gazebo.


The long lonely trail.


The trail's not so lonely anymore.
