Hello everyone! Here's the second set of pictures from New York!
 |
| When we went in the Empire State Building, they took this picture of us and superimposed it over this background. Then they tried to sell it to us for $20! We just went to their website and copied and pasted the photo into our computer (that's why it has "proof" written all over it). As you can see, part of my elbow seems to have gone missing. 9/28/2013 |

want to live in New York City -I'm a country girl!
