Work, play and sleep

A photo tour. I finally busted out Ryan's old digital camara that he graciously lent me after the untimely demise of my own. It may weigh ten pounds, but it gets the job done! :-) Here's a quick photo tour of my life thus far...

This is the municipal building, where I work for the time being. Our office is on the 24th floor and has an amazing view. You can't really see the statue at the top, but it is a woman holding a five-point crown (representing the five boroughs) called 'Civic Fame.' I think it's the second largest statue in the city. Sometime I'll get a good picture, but today I was on the way to interview and had to run...
The view from the office!
Back in the hood: The Brooklyn Museum of Art. This is only two blocks from our apartment!
The main Brooklyn Library. Only four blocks away!
Grand Army Plaza. This is the other side of the plaza from the library, and in between is the entrance to Prospect Park. This monument I think is to comemorate the Civil War, but for some reason there is a bust of JFK too. I should find out what's up with that... On Saturdays, there is a farmer's market in the plaza, but I haven't gotten a chance to go yet.
The front entrance to my apartment building. It's called the 'Mille Plaza'...that's how you can tell it's a classy place...

Holly!

Super pictures! I got your message late last night. Kyle and I spent the weekend in Cincinnati. We had a nice time. Your view out your work window is spectacular. I'll be talking with you...

Have a super day,
Ash
