The relatively new Albany Family Court building, and an old smoke stack rising up behind.
On Monday, we had some errands to run downtown and walked around a little in the beautiful weather taking pictures before meeting our friend Lorraine for lunch. This is the dome on the Albany Family Court building. The weather vane on top is a depiction of the Half Moon (I think), the ship that Henry Hudson sailed up the river that bears his name. Over four hundred years ago.
That's the best weathervane EVER!
ReplyDeleteHey-- you guys could pick up copies of Amy's books while you're in the States! DIE FOR ME is out in paperback now, and UNTIL I DIE was just released 2 days ago. Find a Barnes & Noble!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip, Judy. I already have a copy of Die for You that I got from Amazon.fr. We walked by a Barnes & Noble store yesterday, so I know where to go.
ReplyDeleteI love walking tours of cities. I'll bet there have been a lot of changes since you were last there. Thanks for the information about the Half Moon. New info for me!

That's a wonderful picture, and I like the use of the "Half Moon" as a weathervane.
ReplyDeletejudy, yeah, it's pretty cool!
ReplyDeletemary, yes, some changes, but I was here about two and a half years ago, so there's nothing too dramatic.
emm, thanks!
