Rockefeller Christmas Tree


Last night the Rockefeller Christmas tree was lit! What a gorgeous tree. This year I missed going into NYC to see the tree. A few years ago my sisters and I took my Dad into the City to see the tree and the Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall. He doesn't even like the City but that year he was having a bad bout with his Lupus and insisted he go into the City for the tree and the Rockettes! We had a really great time all together. We took him to Ted Turner's Restaurant not very far from there and had a lovely meal. We saw the Rockettes, the tree and then went into St. Patrick's Cathedral. What a wonderful visit to the City that was! What a really fond memory!

  2. I haven't even gone to see my own town's Christmas three and decorations. Need to remember to take my camera and get some photos.

  4. I am a native New Yorker and have many fond memories of the tree and Rockefeller Center. My favorite were the golden trumpeting angels lined up before the tree. Beautiful photo...thanks for sharing.
