This has been quite a week… 📷
I like effective things, and my big, bulky wallet was up for an upgrade-downgrade. A gift from a talented friend 📷:
Leather. The strap pulls up the cards (no more than 3). A back pocket for cash is sewed in the back.
An afternoon walk is all you need sometimes. 📷
I’m still figuring out how to use my notebook for different things. For now there are four main things: reminders, bigger tasks, points before a meeting and taking apart bigger ideas, or brainstorming.
NK, on the other hand, has been using notebooks for years. Being the colorful person they are, they develop creative ways to write down their thoughts. One of the ways they choose to enclose lists in days is in circles. I’m not sure I’ll adopt this system myself, but it does look good.
Here’s a look 📷 of two days from our vacation, with their permission:
Time to leave later today. It’s been grey since we got here, but somehow it added to the charm of the place with Halloween and everything. X-files trees and stormy-like beaches 📷
We were told these little “coffee huts” are everywhere in gas stations here. I like the idea:
On the beach, this quiet small town was bathing in the sun. 📷
A trip to Rosario Beach in the afternoon finally turned on the “vacation mode” switch in my mind. Walking the trails near the cliffs and being surrounded by quiet and nature, and not a single piece of trash in sight, it’s shocking. New York parks are so dirty 😔
A warm-up photo with my camera 📷
In Washington, it seems there are parks around every corner. A park for a walk. A park for sitting on a bench and relaxing. A park for you and your dog - and then a dog park inside that park as well. There’s even a spot for gnomes.
Fun times. 📷
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 enjoy these walks that end on a bench somewhere, looking at the leaves, feeling grateful for places such as these. 📷
After waking up several times with thoughts and brainstorming sessions during the night, I decided to work with a pocket notebook 📓 again. 📷
Unlike my phone, it doesn’t have emails and messages waiting to grab my attention, or a screen to shine into my eyes.
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. 📷
World Trade Center, on my way to Jersey City 📷
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 📷:
And still more doors of Hudson, from when I was around yesterday without my camera. I took these with my phone. 📷
More doors of Hudson 📷
Two more targets of opportunity with the iPhone. Hudson, NY 📷
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. 📷
