Busman's Holiday - New York City

Love stories from New York:



Like comfy old shoes, nothing fits better and words are unnecessary.

They Say the Neon Lights are Bright...

On Sunday, the lovely Miss Nancy and I saw Kelsey Grammer in La Cage Aux Folles. Grammer was, as expected, fabulous. Tender, fatherly, loverly -- he was George, not Frasier. Douglas Hodge as Albin rocked the theater. The rest of the cast were equally as wonderful. If you're in or around New York City, drop by the little jewel box that is the Longacre Theater and see this wonderful gem of a production!

Photo Op

I've got a ton of pictures and lots of stories, but, for now, a few photos from our last day in NYC.

The lovely Miss Nancy, waiting for Erica to call.

Moments later, our favorite Brooklyn Jooette arrives!

And we're off to Central Park to give our cameras a workout!



But first... a hot dog break:










I will treasure this shot, from Erica's lens, as a memory of this wonderful day.

Hold the Bus!

New York is expensive:

1 Panasonic 45-200 mm lens

1 Digital Advance High Definition DLSR Pro MC AF Digital Wide Converter w/Macro 0.48X52 mm lens

1 52 mm PC filter

1 62 mm PC filter

1 Courier camera case

1 lens cleaning kit (which was what I went in here for. All I went in there for, actually.)

Ahem.

I knew this would happen. I just didn't know it would happen so soon.

It's all Nancy's fault.

Drive-Bys

I took one look at this LOMME sleeping pod and all I could think was, "Man! If you tried just about anything but the missionary position in that thing you'd probably end up with one hell of a concussion."

But maybe it's just me...

That's a Fact, Jack:

It's happy-making.

Sweet heavenly Lord!

I'm off to BlogHer '10 first thing in the morning. I'm rooming with the lovely and talented Miss Nancy. I'll be catching up with Fausta and Tanis and Mamacita and more. And new friends -- I'm sure there'll be plenty of those, too.

Miss Nancy and I are also staying an extra day and planning a little site-seeing. Or maybe MOMA or the Cloisters or... who knows?

We also hope to catch up with our favorite Blownstarred, Blown-Eyed Blodger from Sheepshead Bay.

I'm like a little kid on Christmas Eve -- I doubt I'll sleep much tonight!

Ear Worm of the Day:

Yep. That's the ticket!
