Outside a swanky bar in Chelsea

A poem:

The other side is also interesting.

(The arrow is pointing at the street.)

Name your hair salon this

I can't think of any reason why not.

Same problem

Different solutions.

It is possible that Goofus and Gallant live in these houses.

The best thing ever

This guy.

I took many pictures. Until some people were like, Umm, excuse me, could we get some garlic please??

I would like to shake the hand

Of whoever designed this banner.

Rockaway Beach!

It's quite an interesting scene.

You can get really good food (and coffee!).

There are items to find.

Waves galore:

The incredible ocean.

I patted this walrus.

And, the best thing: when you're done, if you stand in line a lady will hose off your legs for you.

At Value Village

Another thing you read about in old books:

Excelsior! Used for packing fragile items since 1868.

I really wish I had bought this.

Apparently

I was wrong.

Snow is good for a cactus! Because look at this guy now!

The Diary of Adrian Mole

Did you read that book when you were a kid? Were you totally confused by some of the things in it? Like, what is a vesta, what are PE shorts, and what the hell is a string vest???

WELL!

Look what I found in a thrift shop in Park Slope:



































Zackly, a string vest! A long weird tank top . . .



Made of string.



That says "string vest" on it!

The beach

I enjoyed examining everything.

Bay of Fundy beach

The rocks taste salty.

On my way home tonight

A kitty in a window.



Aww, crossed paws!

I wanted to say hi, but . . .



FACT!!

This guy

Awesome head of wavy bright-gray hair. Don't you want to pet it?

The saddest thing EVER

That's its FACE!

Dog sticks

Pick-up and drop-off area?

Donut shop

Things you make.

"No!"

This thing is awesome!

I wasn't totally sure it was discarded, or I would have for sure taken it.

I'm not sure what's going on here

But I do appreciate the attention given.

Keep plastic bags away from children

They may accidentally throw away their friend.

:(

My favorite farmers market stand

Cactuses!

I like seeing the kids get excited about them.

Each of these boys was allowed to pick out one plant.
