Postcards from NYC



A spring weekend in New York was surprisingly good. How NY has changed: people are more friendly than in Boston. No really! There is less security theater and paranoia than in Boston. Imagine people entering an art gallery with a bag, taking photographs, holding the door open for someone. I saw it all. I am not exactly ready to move to New York but I was pleasantly surprised. Photographs here are from Tibet House [Danny Conant and Catherine Steinmann], MOMA [Olafur Eliassen], Madison Square Park, the wonderful Tabla restaurant. We also went to the 11th Street Bar, home of the NY Liverpool Supporters' Club, to watch the Liverpool game. It had a warm, friendly atmosphere but was too dark for photography.

Watch out for the kiss:

Life without braces



A great moment in herstory. Standing outside the dentist's office, after the liberation of her teeth, Rachel stopped grinning for a moment for a single word of commentary: "Weird". Ahh...I remember that moment of freedom, that feeling of having a giant mouth [again], like it was....36 years ago.
