Miguel Estebans likes a bento box in Bryant Park for lunch on workdays. Now that he's a fancy magazine editor he doesn't dawdle over a leisurely lunch. Goodbye El Paso, hello New York. Hello, Mike. Mike used to watch me create the "picture of the day" website by hand, in HTML, every day for the summer of 1999. Goodbye HTML, hello Blogger.
The two fuzzy and cuddly inhabitants of farmhouse 2007 are Dog and Ulali. They're about the same size, and are both qudrapedal. Time passes slowly at the farmhouse. The natural beauty is stunning. 
Kunti, Jonathan, and Ulali coming back from the creek.Kunti took me with her to the YMCA in downtown Springfield for a "hardcore abs" class. I'm usually a fan of anything called hardcore, so I tried it. I was sore for two weeks. Kunti is a stallion.
Yep, its THE arch. There's a lot I didn't know about the arch before visiting, so I will share all that with you now. It represents a gateway to the west, celebrating westward expansion. (I'm going the wrong way, then). You can ride to the top in white metal pods handing from cables. There's a low-ceilinged room at the top. Jonathan (next post) tells of a friend who got to the room at the top, looked for his car parked below, and watch it get broken into. Urban legend? Maybe. Great story. It's a national park, and there's an IMAX theater in the basement. It's much larger than the statue of liberty. I wonder how large it is next to an offshore wind turbine...
Being a Pisces from Maine, I always seek water, even in the high desert. Santa Rosa, NM calls itself the city of lakes. Ha.
