072609 - Goods4Good Beach Day at The Suffolk.

After hearing Annie and Ben of Greenpoint’s Rooftop Farms speak last night, I’m more keen than ever to have my own NYC garden. In the meantime, I plan on stopping by their farm Sunday morning for a peek (and some veggies).

I successfully canoed 27 miles this past weekend. Although my arms were sore, my hands blistered, and my back knotted, the accomplishment felt great. I’d like to give a special shout out to my canoe partner Chelsa. Girl power in Canoe 32! (pic via marsbot)

The mission of NY based collective Macro-Sea is to “develop projects we find interesting.” What have they been working on recently? Converting old dumpsters into urban swimming pools in Brooklyn!!! So rad I can hardly contain myself.

Went to Vinegar Hill House for the first time last night. The food was excellent. If you go, I’d recommend the Country Chop and a side of the Roasted Beets. Delissssh.

Featuring 5,000 pounds of sand, beach chairs, tiki torches and a rumored outdoor shower, The Suffolk Beach Bar on the LES looks kind of amazing. [As an aside, G4G is throwing a beach bash here later this month. Should be fun, if you’d like to come along.]

The Ledge at the Sears Tower. Excellent self challenge for acrophobics (like me).
