Statue of Liberty Plaza... sunset... |
 |
 |
Statue of Liberty Plaza... Geneva suddenly became frozen in a Lady Liberty pose. She remained frozen as Lady Liberty even after getting back into her little red wagon... I mean her "airplane." I discovered that the only thing that would unfreeze her was to tickle her ribs! |

Later... Geneva's first moments with her birthday guitar... a Washburn "Rover"... she's going to be a sensation! |

23 Here's a link to my little “Let It Go” page, which pulls together a bunch of YouTube links to various renditions of the song, along with notes. It's rare that I develop an affinity for music this popular, but under the spell of young Geneva Queen Elsa I've been touched by this song. I may even have to work up an accordion version one of these first days... |
