Twinkling Lights in Willowtown

This picture brings me much delight.  

Warm, bright Christmas lights lining the trees in front of Iris Cafe's eclectic storefront.  The Riverside Houses towering above, River Deli and our Moroccan friends in the near distance.  This little corner of Brooklyn has been our home for the last two-and-a-half years, and we have loved every single moment (well, except for the moments when some of our hei ren neighbors taunted us from a balcony in Building 20, yelling, "Tell your people to stop moving in here!" ... but we get some sort of that practically everywhere, so...).

Living here has been a joy and a privilege.  Wish we could stay.  One day in the semi-near future, we will go and make our home elsewhere.  But we will always be thankful for the all the seasons--particularly the joyful Christmases!--that we had here.
