    On a walk around west village, we saw this little guy looking at us through the window. 📷🐶

    A quiet weekend away from the city is a remedy every New Yorker should take every now and then.

    I’m not an art expert, but this looks like a piece of junk they pulled out of the water. It’s an eyesore in this otherwise green park. 📷

    I get peaches at the farmer’s market down the block. I have to wait two days before they’re ready to be eaten, but they’re worth the wait. 📷

It looks like the inside of a giant dinosaur skeleton. JTR wearing glasses is partially visible at the bottom of the image, with the of the Oculus in the background, a ceiling featuring vertical beams from steel above.

    Typical NYC hangout, complete with coffee and your typical “heavily stickered and graffiti-covered hand dryer” (sometimes the AI description nails it) in the bathroom 📷:

    One of the things that immediately captured my eye were some of the houses and their doors, specifically. Here are some pictures from my first round with my camera. 📷

    From a couple of days ago: a night out with drinks. It was fun. 📷

    Mouse introduced me to their friend and a guard at a local pet store last night. 📷 I’ve walked these streets a hundred times, but I don’t see the things they do. It’s like discovering a hidden world in the world I know each time.

    Man I’d love some beer from this truck… 📷

    The problem with having an espresso machine at home is getting spoiled.

    Instant coffee tastes horrible. Starbucks coffee is either too watered down or too bitter.

    On my walk, I passed by a local firehouse, where they cleaned and prepared one of their fire trucks.

    A fire station with an American flag and two fire trucks parked inside is visible behind a blue and white star-spangled bollard.

    Nat’s dad’s surgery went fine, and everything turned out OK. I find myself sitting on a sofa I haven’t set on for over 5 years since Nat moved in with us.

    The father is originally from Ukraine, and there’s food that reminds me of my childhood. The best part is the homemade pickled tomatoes. He knows how to make them just with the right amount of garlic, sugar, and vinegar. I had to stop eating more of them or risk stomach pain.

    I walked the dog, a passive-aggressive mix of a Corgi and a Jack Russell. She had to be carried downstairs, and I could tell she was holding herself back from snapping at me when I grabbed her. She understood that if she wanted to go outside, I was the only option she had today. I understood that if I wanted to go somewhere, I needed to forget about it because she was in charge. It worked out OK.

    What’s left at this point is to grab a good cup of coffee somewhere, as instant coffee doesn’t' agree with me (that’s OK - I don’t agree with it either).

    A pleasant surprise: a community garden at a local school on my evening walk. 📷

    A little coffee shop comic 📷 anyone?

    Lets go to the movies 🍿 📷

    On my way back, I always enjoy crossing east to west through Central Park. How can you not? 📷

    My morning sandwich is one slide of bread cut in half with vegan pesto, one slice of vegan Gouda cheese, one sliced cherry tomato, and Dijon mustard (Grey Poupon). 📷 🥗
