This is the Veterans of Foreign Wars post in Beacon, NY– number 666. Satanic! We stopped in Beacon for lunch on the way back to the city. Had lunch at the Piggy Bank.

A day in Queens
Scenes from the Pines
We spent the weekend in Fire Island with some friends; a last chance at beachiness before the true changing of the seasons. We were lucky enough to have landed a lovely house on a beautiful plot in the Pines (thank you Shmul), and even with rain on Saturday it was such a gift of time… Continue reading Scenes from the Pines

Harbor Day– Holland on the Hudson

Laughing, maniacal; trident-wielder in the spray. I think I'm coming down with the same under-the-weather/cold that ruined Ben's weekend. Just in time for the ramping-up of this project, too.… Continue reading waiting on a render…
Summer things
Our two giant plants in the windows of the front room, enjoying the sun. I've been typing dyslexic all day. Weird. Memorial Day weekend– first great exodus of cityfolk to the hinterlands; civic start to the summer months. I've spent a fair amount of it working, but today has so far been for things of… Continue reading Summer things
