new yawk pix
ok, here are a whole bunch, not numbered but I will try to explain what they are afterward. I can’t seem to get the text to wrap areound the pix very well… First off, John Lennon’s memorial from Central Park. (Click on any to see them larger. And let me know if you want prints — I will send them.) Then: random shots of stuff and such and windows and garbage and carousel in Bryant Park and people and things and shops and St Patrick’s Cathedral at night, nature and urban views and the like. Still life, except none of it was still. That motion-y one above is an inside…

coupla pix before bed
I am falling asleep on East Coast time still. But a few quick pix: (L)Mia before the graduation (waiting at Madison Sq Garden/Penn Station) (notice the bag I made her), then (R) Mia waving her diploma after leaving the stage, at the 42nd St theatre where Phantom of the Opera plays every day and night. (L)Mia in front of her fabu school. Do you love her hat or what? Here is Ma and Pa Tracey in front of the U-No-What…notice and appreciate my $16 dollar-store outfit — which became necessary when my beat-up Uggs and jeans and sweaters were suddenly not appropriate for a graduation in 80-degree heat. And here…

wait — one more!
ABOVE: Erik Kos, fabulous self with hot-pink do-rag (go Jets!), Carrie Beavers, Max Tubbs (go Pilots!), Mr Husband (aka Patrick Tracey), Linda Tubbs and Peter Beavers (go, Alameda!). Hometown pride in action…We’re near the Bladium and the other hangars, in front of the Seaplane Lagoon. Here’s a shot that friend Michael Shiess, of Lucky JuJu Pinball Gallery and the Neptune Beach Amusement Museum , who was driving past, stopped and took. He also generously offered his Dumpsters for us to dump in (alas, they were already full). Thanks, Michael! (Michael is also the guy who found the very old Jane Austen book in his house that I wrote about last…

Earth Day
Every day should be Earth Day. Check us out…(captions below) 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. Who’s who?1. Wide view of the tiny beach, with our “ready Fleet” far behind us. Also the USS Hornet aircraft carrier behind us (from which Apollos were rescued and the Doolittle Raid took off). 2. Close-up of the plastic stuff embedded in the driftwood. It was a big fat sifting job that ended when the wind blew it back into our eyes. 3. Linda Tubbs, whose husband is a Coast Guard intelligence guy, lives in our neighborhood, and her hubby got the tides right for us (or told…

Double Duty
We said I would be posting photos from Tuesday’s media blitz for Measure H, and here they are. Just a few made it to print (see tomorrow’s Alameda Sun), but here are some other views from the day. All photos taken by me. Many pix, but to clarify what is whom: 1. Ron Mooney confers with Becca Rosati before the rally begins. 2. Chipman Cougar Cadet Corps march into battle. 3. Elementary school students trash-talk budget cuts. 4. John Larrabe, ACI driver, has worked Alameda streets for two years. He says “Anytime you can help the children, it’s a good thing.” 5. Natalie Currid, 5, a kindergartner at Edison School…
