Chrysler Building, Night View


 In a normal year, I would be in New York, joining friends for our annual festival of museum-visiting and gawking at holiday displays. But Covid has made this another not-at-all-normal year. We always start with a three mile trek up 5th Avenue, hatted and gloved, immersed in the energy of the city. This is the view of the Chrysler Building from the corner of 5th Avenue and 42nd Street. I was surprised and delighted by the ghostly image of the city bus rumbling through the intersection. Hopefully, next year we can stand on this same corner, waiting for the buses to go by.
