Raindrops on Roses

These are a few of my favorite things in NYC: South Street Seaport. Feels like a blast from the past. Cobblestone streets, colonial style buildings, fish smell. Loverly!

This SwimBikeRun store is really close to the park. I rented a bike there several times and almost considered running with their group. Then I found out they were all training for the marathon....and then I decided to stay with my leisurely jog around the Reservoir.

They also have karaoke. With a deejay who wears GoGo boots. FUN! Diablo Royale Bar & Restaurant in the West Village. British shirtless barkeep not always guaranteed. But Stu is always worth the trek:)

Central Park. The leaves were changing. We dont get much of that in the PNW.

Serendipity's frrrrozen hot chocolates are in a class of thier own. I recommend the mint!

Westville Restaurant in the West Village. Aaron will tell you about the 20 veggie options, and then convince you to get the baked Mac n Cheese. and he's right.


Happy Taco on the UES. The name says it all!

Really great appetizers!

There are several brew houses in Manhattan, but this one boasts 64 beers on tap, and is located across the street from the Joshua Tree.

MacLaren's is based on McGee's. Our server was named Carl. I didnt bring it up, but giggled inside while I was there.
The fire escape at my apt 300 W 10th in Greenwich. I ate breakfast out there almost daily. The view is of the Hudson River and New Joisay. If I could play "Moon River" on the ukelule, it would have been soooo Holly Golightly. Gruesome.
