See-line woman. Dressed in green. Wears silk stockings. With golden seams. See-line woman. See-line woman. Dressed in red. Make a man lose his head. See-line woman. See-line woman. Black dress on.

Last Sunday while in NYC, I spent a little time at the Bastille Day Street Festival on 60th. The event was quite lively with musical performances, face painting, clowns & of course French foods.
