New York City 1969

In October of 1969, I was 16, Tom was 14, when we visited New York City with our Mom 37, and Dad 40.

New York City 1972

The week after I graduated from High School in June 1972, Stan and I drove to New York City for a week of adventure in the big city. Stan was 19 and I was 18.

Left, a neighborhood flood in 1965.

Unfortunately, there was another flood four months after we got back from New York, only this time the water came in and filled up our entire basement on Lilac Lane ruining all the rest of my photos from the trip, except for these from our drive in to the city.
