14 years ago, in the wee hours of the morning, Quirky NY Chick was born! There haven't been many posts in the last couple of years...heck, last year we posted a whopping zero posts...YIKES! Happy Anniversary to my spur of the moment/what the heck lets give it a go/whim...my tiny little corner of the internet. I'm still quirky, I'm just less internety (yeah, I know it's not a word!) about it.

12 Years, 3Days
12 years and 3 days ago we became a blog. Posts are few and far between now but I’ve had a great time, heard some great music (some not so great as well) and took a lot of photos. Happy 12 Years and 3 Days to my little corner of the internet!

Through My Lens: 2018 Newport Jazz Festival - Day 2

After all the wind and dust of day one, the second day of the Newport Jazz Festival brought rain...enough to make some of us ponder building a Jazz Ark! But rain can't keep a legendary festival and good music down. This is how the day looked through my lens.
