So, I will have to start out saying that the entire weekend was hazy, hot and humid. I was so dissapointed that every pic had a blown out white sky. Sure, I could fake a nicer sky in, but that would be cheating.

The trip started bright and early at the Minneapolis/Saint Paul International Airport.

My wife and I were visiting friends who live on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. Most of the photos take place there and around the more popular areas of Manhattan.

Then onwards, through the subway and to see the Empire State Building.

At this point, the remnants of Barry were starting to creep. The rain started and thus ended the photo safari. Thanks for viewing!

Every NYC thread shows me things I haven't seen before. Great stuff. Thanks for sharing.

Nice photos. NYC photo threads always make me want to move there.

[OhioGuy]

So incredible! A friend of mine just relocated from Philly to NYC. He moved into an incredible apartment right in the heart of Chelsea. So needless to say I absolutely have to get over there this summer for a visit. :)

Good shots Plantboy. I don't think the washed out skies in any way detract.

Thank you so much, everybody. It was a fun trip!
