Fair well

Some thought she was obnoxious others crude and inappropriate. The real secret behind Joan Rivers is that she is every much a lady and a gernerous who spent her time comforting those around her.  

Joan,  this one hurt. Rest in Peace.

Over the Bridge

Walking home from Church yesterday over the Brooklyn Bridge. 

On the Promenade

I'm not sure what else makes me happy these days.  Phoebe was at home asleep  but they just bring me such Joy!

Brooklyn Heights

We finally made it and boy was it worth it. The housing stock is quirky pre-war charm, lacking high end finishings but guess who has a fireplace, all the services you could want, hip restaurants and what could possibly be the coolest neighborhood to live in NYC.  And that  is Brooklyn Heights.

Happy Birthday America 2014

Home

At long last, we found a new home. Sadly, this would only respresent our home for a grand total of two days.   -  The backyard was large and usefull, but on second pass, The aparttment resembled a college dorm in a shady neighborhood rather then what we were going for.  NOW GIVE US OUR DAMN DEPOSIT BACK.

Again

The double last straw!!!

The last Straw

You know it's time to leave when you find your front door like this and your landlord did it.
