Fewer Words Than Usual Wednesday

Here are some end of summer photos that I threw together, I mean, that I've been saving for a special occasion to share with you. The special occasion, apparently is that I am waiting for Sarah Palin to speak.



This is my beautiful daughter on summer vacation. I would post a photo of my handsome son, but he always appears as a blur on photos because he is in constant motion. You'll just have to trust me.




This building is on Governor's Island--Morale, Welfare, Recreation. Seriously, doesn't it make you want to book a room there?




And what about this sign? First of all, is this the new math that everyone's talking about? Second of all, my kids saw this and said something like "aww, if you take a rat and add a furry tail, you get a squirrel!!" (well, I added the 'aww' and the exclamation points for effect, because honestly, my children are not that excited by squirrels.) And I thought, "great. Rip the tail off the squirrel, and you got a rat. Probably rabid." I can't help it, I'm an optimist. My sunny disposition is both a blessing and a curse.





One day, we stopped at Denny's for breakfast. I haven't been to Denny's in about thirteen years. I remember the occasion because I love menus that have pictures and Denny's had one with a "Moon Over My Hammies" breakfast delicacy and that's not something that you just forget.

Anyway, we were at Denny's and they brought some crayons for the kids, which was nice, except every single crayon was orange. Just like NYC's terror alert level.
