It has been a busy few weeks. Not much breathing time. Went to the Rock the Bells concert out on Randall's Island last weekend. It was awesome! Got to see Cypress Hill, Public Enemy, Wu-tang Clan (they really rocked), and Rage Against the Machine (kicked ass in concert). Even besides the rain, we had a good time in the mud and then the sun came out for the last half. When it was all over we were able to escape from the masses and found a back way out. Even with security hot on our heels we did it. Walked over the bridge to the upper east side of Manhattan and hailed cabs to take us back to the hotel. Good times!
The weekend before I entertained a friend's cousin who is from Texas. It was his first visit to NYC, actually first time north of Madison, South Carolina. He was so fun and a real cool guy. Lots of great stories to tell. We went to South Street Seaport, then had dinner at a mexican place called Mary Ann's. Then finally went to White Horse Tavern for beers at the outside picnic table. I believe that was a good tour of NYC.
Yesterday I spent the whole day in Park Slope, walking around and window shopping. My girl from Australia made it to town finally. We had a great time catching up.
