Happy Saturday!
Sorry for the break in posting. I’ve had some projects that needed to be completed in a timely manner. I have seven images for you today.
So, Saturday after an exhausting (for me anyway) day on Friday we slept in until almost 8:30 a.m. Then we went to McDonalds (which was only a block from the hotel) and had a wonderful breakfast for a reasonable price. We met some ladies from Wisconsin who were there for the same reason. They had been burnt on their first day with a pricey breakfast.
I told Jeanne that one of the things I wanted to do in New York was to see Fox News building. I knew on Saturday they usually featured some outdoor activity and I wanted to see that. By the time we finished breakfast I assumed that Fox and Friends was over, and we’d missed our opportunity.
We walked the three blocks to Fox News and all we could see was a crew of workers tearing down a set. Jeanne said, “Well we missed it, let’s move on.” It was one of the very few times she was not right because as we rounded the corner I spotted Abby Huntsman (image above.)
I couldn’t get her attention as there were several people in front of us but was able to capture a couple of images of her.
The is Pete Hegseth. Great American, was a Special Forces guy and is a no nonsense, take no prisoners type of individual. You can see on his arm the tattoo of “We The People.”
Jeanne took this image with her iPhone, which has a faulty lens that distorts people and makes them look larger than they really are.
It was hot even at this time of the morning and Jeanne heard one of the security guards say (under his breath) “Come on already let’s go inside.” 🙂
This is Rick Reichmuth, the weather guy. I yelled at him that I had purchased his “Weatherman Umbrella” and he came over and shook my hand. I wanted to get a picture with him too, but there were lots of people yelling at him, so he didn’t hear my request.
By the way if you google Weatherman Umbrella it is an amazing umbrella for a reasonable price. Check out all the features it has and then decide for yourself.
This is Griff Jenkings. He is an at large reporter for Fox News but many times co-hosts the Fox and Friends program with Abby and Pete.
I let a perfect stranger take my camera for this shot. Jeanne was in shock. Truth is he gave me his cell phone to take a picture of him and Griff and so he just returned the favor.
Yesterday I traveled to Maquoketa and took down my photography exhibit. I sold 7 images, which the lady said was very high and that usually they only sell two or three. I’m glad for the Art Experience as they get a percentage.
Thanks for stopping by the blog.
Enjoy your day and be careful.
