O Hai!

 

I’m back from NYC, have been since last Thursday night or very early Friday morning.

 

NYC was fabulous, magical, crowded, amazing, romantic and picture pretty.  I was expecting a lot of Fall colors, but NYC is still quite green.  I was told there was an over abundance of rain this summer and that is reason the trees haven’t quite turned.

 

I have tons of photos to process and it’s a little overwhelming.  Some have been posted on my Flickr stream and I think I will post a few here too.

 The photo above was taken during the “magical” hour light at Washington Square Park.

That was one our favorite spots to frequent.

Hope everyone is doing great.

NYC

I’ll be in NYC for a week. 

It’s my first time.

I am beyond giddy with excitement.

How much camera gear should I bring?

omg omg omg.

 

See you all when I get back.

Groove Merchant

Another favorite haunt of ours in the city.

It’s a great little music store in the Lower Haight.  They sell mostly vinyl, but I’ve seen a few CD’s.  It’s a stroll down memory lane looking through all the albums. Some I recognize and a lot I don’t. 

We’ve mostly been collection jazz, but I found the Beatles Love album for a great price. Of course, it’s in our vinyl collection now.

If you’re ever in the area, they are here.

It’s the first cool day here in Northern California and I am reminded that I need new tights. 

Plus, patterned, colored and textured tights are all the rage this season. More reason to stock up.

I promise to blog more and will do so after my NYC trip.

Oh how I adore Michelle Williams new cut.  It is such a great cut for her features.  Now, I must go pick up the new Vogue to read all about her.

Would love to have my hair this short again, but not sure if I can pull if off at my age. Hmmm….we’ll see.

P.S…..the shoes, omg.

It was my first “Trash The Dress” session.  There was much laughter and fun.  The girls were game to do anything, like climb a fire escape in the Presidio, stand in the middle of a busy street , drag a little siamese cat on their dress train around the apartment. Silly kitteh.

The girls were troupers and they did trash their dress, but no body of water was involved.  They thought the Bay would be a bit cold. Brrrr.

 

You can view a few of the photos here.

I will add more throught out the week.

Enjoy!

I was so due for a 3 day weekend and I’m sure everyone else needed one too.  August was the most stressful month for me, so I’m pretty happy to see September.

 

We drove to the coast, enjoyed a lovely picnic with the company of our friends.

 

Hosted a little cocktail party.

 

Walked the city and took a nap.

 

I hope everyone had a lovely holiday weekend too.

The art of napping

Cats sleep 16 to 18 hours a day. I’m so jealous.

As you can see, these two kittehs will sleep anywhere.

 

Fun Fact:

Fuji is right pawed and Rollei is left pawed.

half life

Love ‘half life’ from Imogen Heap.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.  It’s going to be a hot one  in SF today, stay cool.
