One of the nice things about being a little removed from this earth is that you can identify with the unusual and the paranormal. Maybe this is why I like this picture. The photo is for the heading “shapes” in the latest scavenger hunt. One of these shapes is the moon. Now anyone who has
There is such a thing as watching too much CSI!!! Someone backed into my car the other day, while it was parked in the parking lot. I was actually amazed to find a note on my windshield with a telephone number and an apology. At first I thought that the number would be a “fake”
I couldn’t resist this sign, this time. I have taken this picture before but never had a reason to post it. Well now I can. I call it “Beer Olympics.” If McDonalds can be the official restaurant of the Olympics, than I can post beer challenges. Don’t overlook the small green circle in the distance,

Sunday night we went to the parkette to the west of the flatiron building near St. Lawrence Market. There we came across a lovely pianist, who was very welcoming. She introduced herself to her “come by chance” audience; sat for pictures or videos and happily explained how, although she had studied music, she just made up
We went down to Sugar Beach last night to check out the street piano that was there. Fortunately we were able to avoid the $10.00 parking fee because we found on street parking – almost unheard of on the waterfront. At first my husband thought that the parking was $20.00 – but that was for
