Tomorrow I leave our beautiful coastline for its sister in the East…it’s already time again for our annual Thanksgiving vacation.
Life has thrown me several curve balls over the last three weeks, and I apologize for being absent here. I see this upcoming break as such a gift, and I can’t wait to show my children the wonder and magic of New York City over the holidays. We are so lucky to be able to do this with them.
I made this image by layering two shots together. Views from my neighborhood. Straight out of camera otherwise. I think I am going to make this really big and hang it up, really soon.
Wishing you all a peaceful, restorative Thanksgiving.
See you next week.

tara and family,
we wish u all the best time in nyc. we hit the city last winter with our two girls and they fell in love. There are tons of deals online….google things like free museum days etc…and happy hours….there are some good deals to be had. anyhow, blessings to you and that is so awesome that you are going together. Kids and travel should go together in my opinion.:) teri
Very rad picture! NYC for the holidays sounds like magic! Enjoy and Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving Tara. Love the beautiful photo. Gorgeous.
There’s something quite poetic about having an image on your walls that represents two different views of the same horizon. I think you should listen to that voice that wants you to blow it up and hang it up. Happy Thanksgiving & safe travels to you and your family.
So excited for you! Visiting NYC for the holidays has always been of a dream of mine… can’t wait to hear about your experience. Wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving full of blessings.
