A few birdies from Central Park yesterday. Light was challenging and it was raining but we enjoyed our walk. #birding #birds, #centralpark #birdwatching

I did. I’m not sure if my posts are set to share. I think they are.

I just re-installed the air conditioner in the living room…I thought mid-September was a safe time to remove it but summer just won’t go away and I miss using the oven. It’s 81 in our apartment and it’s supposed to be 84 in NYC tomorrow. #WhereIsFall #TooHot

Americans selected for grand or trial juries can also, as they have done in D.C., refuse to enable groundless, vindictive prosecutions. Jury nullification has a long and noble tradition.

Thanks!

Yes! I loved it! I still have some shoulder tendinitis so Shawn and I went tandem and just for an hour but the lake was really calm so it was enjoyable and not too difficult.

Thanks! They aren’t the sharpest as I was holding a camera in a kayak but it was fun to be at the same level as some of the birds.
