My Day, APRIL 19, 1949 NEW YORK, MondayWe celebrated Easter again yesterday in the little church at Hyde Park. The flowers made the altar beautiful and the day outside was all that one could wish for, even though the wind was chilly. The sky was blue, and the daffodils and some of the other early garden flowers stood up bravely in the sun. #ValKill #Daffodils #EleanorRoosevelt #FindYourPark #EncuentraTuParque #GardenMonth #StJamesChapel #HydeParkNY #NPSHydePark
