An amazing sunsets before our incoming storm. People stopped in the park, on the street, came off stoops, and stuck heads out of building windows to share this moment together. #LoveNYC

Hey #BikeNYC a friend was given 4 bike tickets for intersections they didn’t travel in. Almost $800 in fines because the police felt like ticketing a cyclist 🤬my friend is privacy minded so their phone doesn’t track location. Advice on dealing with cops making up infractions to hit their quotas?

Cargo bikes are such game changers. Vacation achievement unlocked: ✔️ car-free ✔️ multiple weeks ✔️ all the family’s gear ✔️ sailed past cars waiting for the ferry ✔️ no expensive beach parking ✔️ so much fun cycling everywhere

Found this little guy in the street a few weeks ago- posted signs but the rain washed away our #. A week later a kid recognized him as their class ‘pet’ & another family who lost him (& frantically looking) wrote their # in our sign. PS the pig was also found. All is right again in stuffie land.💕
A weathered paper signed on a post showing a hedgehog photo and a handwritten “If found please call”The sweet little hedgehog nestled into a paper bag holding a noteA note with hedgehog paw prints across the top and a photo of a hedgehog in the bottom that reads 

“Dear Class,

Wow, what a busy two week’s I have had!
I walked so many hedgehog miles then a 5th grade girl found me a took good care of me - she even gave me a bath and introduced me two her two stuffed hedgehogs who were very, very kind. It was a lovely adventure where I made new friends and told them all about my friends in your class but I am so, so happy to be home with you now.”A post with a pig in one photograph and a hedgehog in the other saying” lost and found stuffed animals:

Well, looking for a beloved piggy, we found a hedgehog on Lennox(between 111 and)-please let us know if you’ve seen aSPAM written on her foot or lost a hedgehog. Thanks!”

Grueling semester so far but I’ve picked up a new hobby: Sandwich bag. Someone/something left this bag containing food on an inaccessible ledge outside my lab. All we can do is wait/observe… Day 34: possible mold developing, the weight still firmly on the edge, wind gusts predicted tonight.
