Our family has been going to our modest house there since 1972.

When my mother finally decides to sell it, it will be a tear-down. The realtor says that anything that sells on the island that is over 10 years old is automatically torn down.     ???

That's too bad, but certainly not a unique situation. :-\

Everyone wants a McMansion that maximizes square footage on each lot.

That's really too bad. >:(

  Was it always that quiet and deserted? 

At this time of year, yes. During the summer, not so much. I much prefer the "off" season.

The off season is very special.

I'm sorry it won't stay in the family.

That’s sad and, in certain situations, just disgusting.

Yes it is.

Someone had this in their garden landscaping: a wrought iron doggie, stuffed with pink sponges.



That's a pretty cool idea.

I didn't free the caption and originally thought it was flowers.

Our house and the one that is now gone were unusual for the neighborhood as they shared a lot, making each home smaller than most of the other homes on the street.

Joshie is currently tied up in band rehearsals for Spamalot, so we are not meeting tomorrow, I have the week off. I think I may spend the time composing and revising a score I wrote fifty years ago.

An original Larry Moore Score??  That would be awesome! :D

Thanks for the vote of confidence!

I am eating childhood comfort food - Campbell's tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich - as my first meal since yesterday.

Today I’m seeing a presentation of the silent film Steamboat Bill, Jr., of which I know nothing, at the Bedford Playhouse. It will be accompanied on piano by Ben Model, who I also don’t know but he’s a notable silent film organist/pianist and I will very much enjoy it all.

Keaton at his finest!
