I wandered around, often in big circles looking for Thomas Street. It was hiding in plain sight, but I had my adventure. And my knees really rebelled against all the fun. TY to my friend C. for insisting I take the prescribed painkiller.

Bonus: I ran into the Tish rally en route. “Hands off Tish James.”

I was also lucky enough to catch this grafitti.

REI at the Puck

The REI, a competitor to the out door firm Patagonia, is closing a very large store in Soho. REI will no longer be represented in NYC. The store is located in the Puck, a building dating to the mid-to-late 1800s. This does not qualify as end of an era stuff, but it did offer a jog to my memory. The jog, not unexpectedly, ran a path straight to how Burt and I met.
