Ola!
Its Monday again
time for me
to spill
all
the weekend excitement
I know you all
wait
breathlessly
for this drivel
Last week
I promised to link back to
where some of my photos are posted to serve as prompts for poems
My bad
I didn't forget
I was waiting for some of the poets
to feel their muse
there's a Mr Linky at the bottom of the post there
to read what the photo(s) inspire click over and do say hi
Okay
Saturday
was spent in the 'hood
I had a lot of errands a lot of wandering in out of various shops in search of elusive cosmetic items
I know if I had trekked to midtown
I'd have scored
I was just wanting to walk
look in windows
keep my eyes open for photo ops
like this one
of the small
Farmer's Market
at
I saw this at the honey seller's kiosk
you can be patriotic
pour from Ms Liberty's crown
or
you can buy some of these bite sized honey candies
(I took this shot for Faye)
Sunday
I had a mission
a gift certificate for Saks
I had hoped to get myself a very expensive pair of shoes
it turned out that Saks on Fifth Avenue
doesnt carry the brand I wanted
they also no longer sell
a small leather goods line I had in mind as a back up
I need a new wallet
instead
I managed to snag two pair of JBrand leggings at 70% off
Yeah me!
On the way to Saks I did took a few photos to share with you
this one is for
Debbie Angel
who loves the
Empire State Building
this is Bryant Park the 42nd Street side
here
a couple of tourists have breakfast
it was a very mild day
there's an ice skating rink in Bryant Park
this was taken
just
as they opened the gates
for the afternoon session
I love water shots
this fountain has several spouts
last but not least
Jack
wanted to show off his mighty
stretch
thanks for tagging along
its always fun for me
I hope its fun for you too!
First thing our pets do each morning... shake and stretch to get the kinks out. I do the stretch but haven't mastered the shake just yet. :-)
ReplyDeleteLove your images.
ReplyDeleteGo Jack! I love the skaters. I want to skate in circles and unwind, too!
ReplyDeleteThat is a nice stretch, Jack. Love the photos of your time "out and about."
ReplyDeleteso lovely :) i bought apples at that very stand on saturday; love the little tucker square market. and jack, you are tooooo cute!
ReplyDeleteLove the stretch!
ReplyDeleteAlways love to read what your weekends are like...you always do the most interesting things and take the loveliest photos! Jack is just too sweet!
ReplyDeletetotally fun!! I loved the sign at the skating rink, 'skate in circles and unwind', very good!! happy monday xo
ReplyDeleteIt's always fun to visit here and see what you've been up to Daryl. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat shots, silly Sax. Beautiful Jack.
ReplyDeleteAnother busy weekend for you. I hope you find the shoes you want, but the jeans were a great deal. Just the wandering and browsing would have been pleasant enough for me.
ReplyDeleteSo how small were the farmers?
ReplyDeleteDaryl, glad you had a nice weekend! I find it so nice to get your point of view of the Apple! So much of the world knows so much about NYC. It is quite iconic. I'd certainly like to visit there one day! But it's nice to visit it with you!
ReplyDeleteAwww - Jack is frigging awesome!
ReplyDeleteThat's some stretch! :D
ReplyDeleteJack had that SAME move when he lived here. . . wait, that's gotta be a different cat. . .
ReplyDeleteLove the water shot, and the honey containers! (got a soft spot for lady liberty)
I remember shopping!
And yes, some of actually DO wait to see what you and Actor Guy have been up to. Oh! The Mean Gurl lives! Captioning the young couple as "tourists"
is TOTALLY catty you wicked blogger! LOL

Wow! Lucky you on those J-Brand leggings!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your Monday Monologues!
Hi there! Haven't been here for awhile. Still happy to see you are taking great photos. Love those street shots. Hope you are doing well...
ReplyDeleteThat Jack is a cool cat ...
ReplyDeleteLove all of your out and about shots and you know how much I adore the gator shot...thanks for that ...
Oh, it is fun running around the city with you.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the weekend walk. I feel invigorated! I think those are maple sugar candies the gator has his bite on. I ate so many of those as a kid that I can't eat maple sugar candy anymore.
ReplyDeleteOh it's always fun for me Daryl you know that. NYC through your eyes is exactly how I imagine it to be, real images of real people. Love it, great buy with the leggings, shame about the shoes though! p.s. Jack's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOh just made my day and thank you! xoxoxox
ReplyDeleteJack looks just like our cat Kelly that we had when I was growing up! Twins!
Me and Peach have got to get it together down here and visit!!
Wow...
Jackkkkkkkk!!!
ReplyDeleteI like taking a Monday walk with you. I wanna be Jack! I love water shots -- and this one is very cool. Oh and that pink behind the ESB? Lovely.
