the fifth

actually 
there are no plans for the 5th
its the recovery day

i have been home since the 1st
busy busy busy

beautification
lunches out
walks in the park
a trip to brooklyn


sheila berger's nature eternal
riverside park


a charming backyard
 in 
brooklyn heights


the manhattan bridge
peaking out between buildings 
along
 henry street, brooklyn


 that 
dessert 
was 
a taste explosion 
apple tart
caramel
vanilla ice cream

we watched independence day on hbo
toonman recorded the macy's fireworks
watched them after the movie
 so 
we could 
fast forward 
through
 all the 
ahem
 entertainment 

hope your 4th was fun and safe
