Moving Out 2 weeks ago

After 3 years in NYC, I’m sad to have to leave. I can’t say I will miss everything about the city (the smell of garbage in the summer and the crowded 6 train during rush hour are definitely good things to leave behind) but I will miss the all-night delis, the random street performances and the serendipity of finding a great little restaurant down some side street in the East Village. I think in time I will even miss the slow, sidewalk blocking walk of the tourists who have wandered away from Times Square :)

It’s been a great ride and I hope I will have a chance to come back and do it again sometime.

Not once, not twice... 1 month ago

but THRICE on my trip to Quebec. First time was at some touristy place in Montreal. Second at Chez Ashton’s in Vieux Quebec and finally at a casse-croute near Chute Montmorency.

Adirondack Line 1 month ago

Just took Amtrak’s Adirondack line from Montreal to NYC. It follows right along Lake Champlain for a lot of the trip so it had great scenery. I spent most of the ride in the lounge car looking out the window.
