Wonderful pictures and beautiful pond. Nice to see in my neck of the woods.
I was actually born in Brookly, but I wouldn't exactly say this was in your neck of the woods, unless your neck is pretty long to reach out to Rockland!
LOL - I get what you're saying though, about being in NY and not on the West coast or Florida, etc.
You wouldn't happen to live in Bensonhurst, would you? Both my parents are from there, as were their entire families until my parents moved to Westchester.
