Atlantic City Boardwalk



Atlantic City Boardwalk

You'll be missed!


I was so sad today to learn that Joe the potato peeler guy died! He was well known in New York City - an impeccibly dressed english man who sat on a street corner, making his fortune selling potato peelers. He was usually a fixture in Union Square, but the last time I saw him was in October, not far from City Hall.... the only time I snapped his picture.

Must Like Cats


Off Columbus Avenue... this guy had a cat on his head. So I took his picture.


Walking around D.C.

D.C. is awesome! i was as excited to be here as I was the first time I saw New York. There's so much to see..





Reflections on the wall..











The Monument ...

Next Trip: Monticello!

Lake Erie at Christmas


In between meetings

Walking around downtown I found myself in the middle of a Free Tibet march past City Hall. Huge crowd, probably at least 400 people.

















I walk past City Hall several times a week, finally a bloomberg spotting ! ;)

Seattle


Seattle - Not enough time spent. While I was there I met a friend of a friend of a friend, who showed me around. Definitely need to go back..

What is this? Grand Central Station!


Foot Traffic at Grand Central during my first visit to New York (2002?) It's Busy, It's Chaotic, and I love it.
