To Stay Or Go? That Is The Question...

Well, as we sit here today, it has been 4 months since we arrived in NYC. Summer is in full swing every chance we have to get out and see all this magnificent city has to offer, we do it. We have 2 months left before Laura's current contract is up and we have a lot of contemplating to do. We really love it here and are now starting to entertain the idea of a permanent stay. Laura is seeing offers in here new field of research and has begun submitting resumes. The task we face is if one of those jobs actually offers her a job, do we decide to become New Yorkers for good? The up-side is that we would have the opportunity to live in maybe the most vibrant and exciting city in America. On the other hand, we would be committing to living in maybe the most expensive city in America. There are certainly other concerns that arise concerning NYC, but I think money is the biggest one. In about a month, we will need to start planning our next destination if we decide to move on. The next month should be very interesting. In the meantime, here are some of my latest images that continue to dazzle my eyes and make me never want to leave this place!!

Empire State of Pride

Whether life's disabilities
Left you outcast, bullied, or teased
Rejoice and love yourself today
'cause baby you were BORN THIS WAY!!

This may be the best color scheme I have seen of the Empire State Building since we arrived. The rainbow colors lit up the NYC skyline in honor of gay-pride week here in the city. Coming on the heels of this past week's landmark SCOTUS decision on DOMA, this weekend was a very special time for the LGBT community here in New York.
