Today I escaped! After more than a year, I finally have my Covid vaccinations, I waited the proscribed time, I masked up, and I headed to the Long Island Railroad station at Glen Head, and I took a train to the city! I was the only person on the platform when the train came!
It was kind of cool to see the train pull into the station! There were about 6 people in the car I was in and we were all spread out. I felt completely safe traveling on the train. What was surprising were all the changes I saw along the route in the year's time since I rode the train last. In Jamaica, there are half a dozen or more new buildings right near the tracks, and the effect is astounding - it is a completely new skyline there. Tomorrow I will tell you more about my trip.

So glad that you decided to go into the city. It's been a long time! I like your selfie - Interesting angle. Great that you had so few people on the train. I know you will enjoy your visit. Looking forward to the photos. betsey
So happy you able to visit the City after a year or more of staying in. I look forward to your stories of your visit. Who took your photo?

I used the self-timer on the camera, and set the camera on the platform and bunched up the camera strap under the lens to point the camera up. So, actually, I took the picture!
