The Statue of Liberty is always a wonderful sight to behold. I like sailboats too.

Its hard to believe that the Statue of Liberty has been there for 125 years. My wife had the opportunity to see it for herself some years ago, but I'm still hoping that I will be able to do so in the future.

The statue is made of Bronze, but long exposure to the elements has resulted in the weathered, greenish-gray appearance it now has. The statue was finished in 1883 and on July 4, 1884 was presented as a gift to the united states. The statue was brought to Bedloe's Island in June of 1885, and assembled in 1886, and public unveiling was held on Oct 28, 1886.
