New York City… day 1… part 7… Trinity Church; a shout-out to history and the musical ‘Hamilton’…

I see dead people… These are some pretty old headstones. I mean, by American standards, not by any other part of the world, but still. These people are buried around a very famous church in New York City. This is … Continue reading
