Mid-Winter Sunset on Brighton Beach

Mid-winter bather


Babushka after a dip

The Coolest Dog in the World, and Alex



He weighs 200 pounds, stands at 6'5", and acts like a chihuahua. (The other guy is Alex)

Miscellanous Pretty Things

Little angels pop up as we walk through Barcelona
The funniest and longest dog with a huge personality

A quiet bar to linger the hours away...

A beautiful archway that caught us off guard...

Amazing natural light in the piazza

A random rock heart in Montserrat

A White Christmas on Las Ramblas...

Palau de Musica (I wish we could take pics inside!)

bocce culture

These men were incredible. They were very serious about the game. It was obvious this was something they do everyday , alot like the chess players on Brighton Beach and in Washington Square Park. They even had their own bocce balls that they took home after the game. It seems like a high stress game but somehow they all seemed relaxed. It was very inspiring seeing them so into their game and enjoying the day like kids. I think we will go place some BOCCE in Brooklyn at the only place I know that it is possible: Union Hall http://unionhallny.com/

HAPPY PILLS!

This is the tiniest candy store I have ever seen. It has the coolest concept: you fill up pill jars with candy and put prescriptions on them like, "for a happy Monday." They make really cute gifts. The store is very bright and happy happy happy looking but the underlying idea is definitely controversial. We need a store like this in NYC.
