Exceptional. It's a word that has been passed around of recent about our country. Are we exceptional? After World War II, our two great enemies became our great allies and friends. And one ally became our greatest enemy. Well, at least their government did. Then, after that government fell and after our nation was attacked on 9-11, a Russian artist made a moving sculpture and presented it as a gift to us. An exceptional act. We will meet at City Hall, take the PATH to Journal Square where we will use our bikes to visit examples of our nations progress. which includes the Russian gift. Lunch is at the Broadway Diner and views of the harbor is dessert. Come! Enjoy!
