No skyscrapers here!
Heading off folks into the friendly skies, leaving the sun-soaked shores of Charleston, SC and heading to the rain-soaked boroughs of New York City. I’ve never been a big city kind of guy, but I am excited to see exactly what an area containing 1.5 million people looks like. That’s what the 2,000 census of Manhattan says, add in the rest of the boroughs and you get just over 8 million! Dang! And I think that the Charleston area can get a bit crowed sometimes with its 106,000 people! Hah!
Sure, I lived in Dallas with its 1,000,000+ population, but it was spread out over quite a bit of land … you know, Texas style, but it still got quite busy. Hopefully, I’ll get to ride on the subway and take in some of the local culture! 
Of course, stay tuned. I’ll do my best to keep you informed!

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
I was in the city just last week. It is intense and full of energy and many interesting characters. I like to hang out just across the river in Hoboken. Still urban but a little slower paced and more laid back. Great little cafes and restaurants too.
Have a great trip.
With the Series starting it should be really crazy. Just don’t get mugged.
Don’t worry folks. We big city peeps have wireless here so I’ll make sure you get your daily dose of Paul.
And Don…. that’s back in the 80′s. Mugging is no longer fashionable now. It’s car jacking these days.
Car jacking. Oh, well, that’s comforting. Thank goodness there is wireless!
I am looking forward to reading about Paul and Tom’s Great Adventure.
What fun you’ll have!! I can’t wait to see and hear all about it, Cuz’n. Have a great time.
I think the contrast will make it. If you change sceneries from countryside to city, you probably will be sensible for things that long time city dwellers just don’t see any more. So be careful – don’t drive in a car
– enjoy yourself and show us your view of the city. I am looking forward to it!
It is a place for me to visit but not live. Will finish this post then check out your next post as I’m behind a couple of days.
I like the comfort of this image and again the black and white works pretty good. Man are they relaxed!
