fun with bunting, II

Remember that bunting I made for my fireplace in LA? I hung it in my bedroom and no, I don't normally make the bed. 

things in pairs

Some photos I took this past weekend.

ellis island

After visiting the Statue of Liberty, the boat continued on to Ellis Island. Fascinating.

All photos by me.

lady of liberty

Played tourist for a day and went to visit lady liberty.

Photos by me.

high line, phase two

After seeing Rainbow City, we journeyed up the stairs to see the recently opened Phase 2 of the High Line. Jeff swears he likes the second section better than the first, but I think they both make up one of the most special places in NYC.

All photos by me.

brownies

 Made some brownies for a 4th of July BBQ that ended up getting cancelled. Want one?

rainbow city

Miami based design firm Friends With You created a temporary installation, Rainbow City, at the current north end of the High Line at the lot. Even on a rainy day it was very bright and fun.

fireworks

Yesterday was my first time seeing fireworks on the east coast, and man, does New York put on a show! This was pretty much the same view I saw from the Williamsburg waterfront of the fireworks over the Hudson River.
Photos from here.

a perfect moment

 Last week, I had a donut and an iced coffee in the park.

bears

Some bears I saw on 37th Street.
