Darling Les Paul, and St. Kevin of Assissi…
We took Lester to the vet last week because he'd lost more weight. He was 6.5 lbs and the vet said that if he lost a half pound more, we should have him put to sleep. Ouch. Really? Horrible. She explained that if he was that skinny he would be uncomfortable and didn't want him to be uncomfortable. This was devastating news, but when we got home and thought about it, we decided that even if she said we'd need to put him to sleep, that didn't mean we had to.

Other Stuff in August.
The fun things in August were Kevin's birthday celebration, including an awesome kayak down Long Bay, plus a festive birthday dinner. And then the fair with Bev was also enjoyable. But after the...
Everything Everywhere All at Once
Incidentally, have you seen that movie? It's one of my favorites for sure. But that's not what I'm writing about today; many things have happened and many photos, and I was trying to find a "before"...
The Fair! Part Two
Way back in August, Monday Aug. 17th to be exact, after leaving Conservation World Bev and I headed over to see the Butter Cow. I'm looking kind of bedraggled here; I think that's just how you get...
The Fair! Part One

Farewell to New York…
Our plane didn't leave til 3:15 in the afternoon, so we had plenty of time to get out of the hotel. Or rather, we would have had plenty of time, but instead there was much scrambling and packing and...
After the Fall…
After Mom fell and broke her shoulder walking up the stairs at the Frick Museum, and got a diagnosis and a sling at a walk-in Urgent Care, we had lots of stuff to do. We left the Medrite Lenox Hill...
Our Fateful Walk through Central Park
Mom and I left the hotel about an hour after I returned from my run/walk. I wonder why Mom didn't get a phone photo here? Maybe we were in a hurry. We headed to the nearby Stage Star deli for a...
The rest of my walk through Central Park
I'd never seen this statue before. It's inscribed, Dedicated to the Indomitable Spirit of the Sled Dogs that relayed antitoxin 600 miles over rough ice over treacherous waters through Arctic...
Monday morning in New York
When I woke up on Monday morning at around 9:30, on our last full day in New York, I looked out the window to see what was happening down the avenue. There was a guy on the roof across the street....
