HSA Back Door

Hey, do you notice my nice, new logo that I am now using as my watermark for photos? Pretty snazzy, huh?

We strolled through a portion of Harlem last week. I spotted the HSA, or Harlem School of the Arts, building as we walked down St. Nicholas Avenue. I’d never been to Harlem before. It’s a lovely place with lots of beautiful buildings, shops and LOADS of restaurant venues. The place was teeming with young people as there are a number of universities in the surrounding area. And, of course, there are a zillion billboards advertising everything from fruit juice to logo golf balls. But everything is very colorful and interesting.

We visited the area to see Alexander Hamilton’s old home, The Grange, which is a national historic site and newly restored. Part 1 of our adventure is at my travel blog, New York Traveler.net. I’m still recovering from the exhaustive, whirlwind visit we had. I think I am getting too old for this!
