ABC Wednesday—E is for "empty"

It is possible to enjoy the Piazza di Spagna
and the Spanish Steps and view of
Trinita dei Monti up above without the
hordes that are usually found there.  All you
have to do is get up at dawn.

Thursday Challenge—"empty"

Not much going on in the lily ponds
on a cold wet winter day.

(But this is what they'll look 
like in 5 or 6 months.)
Well worth the wait, I believe.

ABC Wednesday—E is for "empty"

That's my friend Jimmy and we were the only
customers in this Trader Joe's in Sarasota
on a Saturday night last month.
Here in NYC, you'll never see one of these stores
looking like this—even if it's first thing in the morning
or two minutes before closing time.
(Are you lucky enough to have a Trader Joe's near you?)

Monday Mellow Yellows

The fact that this subway car is black
and yellow is not so unusual—this is the
shuttle that runs between Grand Central and
Times Square and is often used for ad
campaigns where they transform
the entire train.  However, the fact that
I'm the only one here . . . that I can't explain!
