Having the Taisho don special at Yakitori Taisho

Oh, and a Kirin draft!

John's Pizza of Bleeker

Already crowded!

Our dinner destination, Flor's Kitchen shut down.

During our stroll, we saw so many stores for rent--lots of places shutting down.

How can we not be in a recession?

At Time Warner Cable...payment line is 50 deep!

Service center is run more efficiently (get a ticket and wait until called). So glad I am not on the payments line!

Basil: King of the cranky cocker spaniels

Our dog Basil is cranky most of the time, but when you least expect it - he can be loving.

Tribeca Film Fest is everywhere!

No wonder the streets are so crowded tonight (especially near any cinema).

Helmeted beauty

Seen on 10th Street & 3rd Avenue.
