Our Anniversary Dinner!


It is September 13th, our anniversary!  We decided to celebrate by driving up the Hudson river to Hyde Park for the weekend.  So for our anniversary dinner we decided to eat at the Gateway Diner, across the river on Route 9 in Highland, NY.  Wait, you think that we should eat in a fancy restaurant for such an important celebration?  Well, there is more to the story, which I will tell you about tomorrow.  When we arrived at the restaurant it was late in the day, and  the light was perfect for a nice photograph.  It is a beautiful classic diner both inside and out!  After dinner when we came out of the diner it was dark out, but the diner looked even more spectacular, so it was time for another photograph!  It is hard to pick a favorite.

Happy Anniversary! Nice that you can get away for a few days. Looks like a beautiful diner. I like the second photo only because the overhead wires are hidden in the dark sky.

Happy Fifty-Seventh Wedding Anniversary! I think a road trip up the Hudson River and capped off with a dinner at the Gateway diner was a great way to celebrate. Back in the old days, a dinner at a diner was all we could afford and I'm sure that was the same for you guys. No doubt this trip brought back many happy memories. Congratulations! PS: Great pics, by the way.

Happy Anniversary! Looks like a great place to eat. I like the second photo better, maybe the contrast between the darkness and the bright diner. Trace
