Shhh ... For a few minutes yesterday it was me!! You might say I 'borrowed' it from the lobby -> then snuck up on the roof to take pics with the Verrazano Bridge as the backdrop. Suddenly a whirlwind swirled around me ... caught on camera by my accomplice who prefers to remain anonymous.

FYI - No sign of Santa on the roof probably because I was a naughty little girl today. (Text to Santa ... my apartment has many portals through which spirits come and go all the time. Feel free to drop in.)

In case you're wondering what happened to the Menorah ... As in all stories and myths it was returned to its rightful place.

Happy Hanukkah to those celebrating. We all know this is a very difficult time for the Hebrew people and others involved with the Middle East conflict, but hopefully some joy will come into your life in this holiday season - whatever you celebrate - wherever it takes you.
