Happy 121st birthday to the NYC Subway, opened on this day in 1904. Like the city itself, you can’t truly love it until there are days where you hate it. But I will always be grateful for it every one of those days.

Sending all love and protection for everyone in the hurricane's path. Praying you make it through safely and as unscathed as possible 🙏🏿

It could drop up to 3 feet of rain on parts of the island.
Prayers up for the citizens of Jamaica.🙏
I loved hiding in these

And what a blessing to witness it all.
