This past weekend Granddad was out of town on one of his many work trips, so Grandma Nancy surprised us with a fantastic, whirlwind visit. That is, we knew ahead of time she was coming, but the trip wasn't long planned. Rosemary was beside herself excited to have Grandma stay at our house.
The weather was nice enough we could visit Pier 6 for the first time since fall.
Then to cope with the doldrums after Grandma Nancy left--and because one pier just isn't enough--we ended the weekend with a quick trip further into Red Hook to Valentino Pier, a park we hadn't been to before. There are great views of the Statue of Liberty and Lower Manhattan, and overall it's just a nice reminder of how watery our city is.
