Tuesday night – I'm on a boat..

Greetings from NYC.. Diane . Gabe, Kristin and I are down visiting Max during Gabe and Kristin’s school break. Last night we drove as far as Rye Brook and stayed in a hotel. We got in late, but had time to set out a late night feast on the ironing board.

We got a reasonably early start today with Breakfast at the hotel.. then an hour drive to the city

Reptar was there to great us.. He’s moving out with JJ as he graduates.. we’re going to miss seeing him..

We also wanted to say good luck to many of Max’s friends who are graduating this year.. they’re all deep i in final projects and pretty wired.. like Chris here..

One of our big missions during this trip was to survery Max’s next project .. This summer he’s helping to renovate to a boat .. a 1978 ferry boat t Max’s new friend , Jonathon baught the boat and now has it parked in ta canal.. a couple of miles inland

Here’s the galley.. / bar ..

The place is full of interesting.. uh.. stuff.. like box of manachin hands.

And an orange plastic deer head.

and.. one of the dual 900 HP turbo desal engines.. .. in workign order..

Here’s the generator.. thought htey’re on shore power now.

And the walkway leading from the boat..

The neghborhood isa mix of industrial and hipster.. a really nice place. .. with GREAT graffiti

And excellent resturants.. like this middleeastern place.

In the afternoon Diane Gabe. Kristin and I went into manhattan to poke around.. It was Kristin’s fifirst time in a subway.. so we wanted to capture that.
