honeymoon - part II

Some shots from our 3 days in Fire Island over 4th of July. So in love with that place. Would be fantastico to go back with some friends...heaven!

Lobster prep

Since there are no cars, everyone uses bikes & wagons for transporting people and things. :)

The main town on Fire Island, Ocean Beach, had a cute, down-home July 4th parade.

Fun homemade floats.

Walking around Point O'Woods

Sunset stroll

honeymoon - part I

Went to New York for our honeymoon and thought I'd share some snapshots. Here are some from our time in the city. :)

A Midsummer Night's Swing at Lincoln Center (exposed film...merp.)

Post-Murray's cheese spread lunch/reading/nap

Bryant Park

Singing at the piano bar with Rick. Any man that owns a Doris Day clothing collection is a friend of mine.

ol' man puggy

Received this text and accompanying picture today from C who was out of town for a conference:

"Hotel pug. 1,000 years old."

Could not stop looking at this dude on my phone all day. I want to snug the heck out of him.

city in the spring

Some recent pictures up from my trip to NYC with some friends & family. :) Just some randoms from central and highline parks, union square & thereabouts. Oh, how I <3 New York.

Starting to feel wonderfully like spring and I can't help but get my hopes up about warm, blossom-filled air. Can you blame me? I've been wearing sundresses outside in complete comfort! I'll just have to enjoy this fleeting moment while it lasts. (:

Heading to NYC pretty soon - anyone have any suggestions of stuff to do? I've done most of the usual suspects, and am looking for some enjoyableness, both lowkey and not, to discover. Any suggestions? Music spots, cafes, classes to take, nerdy historical stuff, dance? I'm all ears!

C and I have been looking around for places to rent in the next couple months, and the idea of decorating a new place is intimidating but exciting. As tempting as it is to immediately fill a space with stuff, I'm going to try my best to hold back and keep things simple. Cutting down on clutter is never easy, but moving always seems to offer a fresh start. Looking to these photos for some natural, minimalist inspiration.
