High Line Plants
Continuing with the High Line in New York City, the flowers and plants are very attractive.
I love how they've left some of the old railroad tracks.

New York High Line
The High Line is a park in New York City that runs along abandoned elevated railroad tracks.
It's a popular place and goes through a couple of buildings.
I took the opportunity to walk most of its length a couple of weeks ago when I was in the city.
I was intrigued by some of the artwork.
I definitely recommend it as a place to see if you're in the area.

NYC Sky
Taken from the High Line park in New York City a couple of weeks ago. Notice all the people on the left of the roof - I believe there was a bar up there.

Horsethief Park Hike (2)
Continuing with my hike in Horsethief Park, it has some lovely mountainous views.
This next shot looks like it was taken with a fish-eye lens, but it's just the natural shape of the hills.
It's called Horsethief Park because horse thieves used to hide out here.
There are some remnants of old structures in a couple of places off the trail, down by the stream.
I would guess they were related to mining. I've got several posts to write about mining in the area as I took a day to explore that aspect of the area's history recently, including going into a mine shaft and visiting an active surface mine. But those photos are for another time!
