This boat was recently moored near Miller's Launch with an impressive display of lights that went up to form a Christmas tree around the mast.

Just another lesson in taking advantage of the moment. If it should reappear, we shall try again.

Happy 2017! On this rather dreary 2nd day of the year, here's a North shoreline shot on Front St., Staten Island.
