Very proud to spend Memorial Day with my grandfather, a veteran of World War 2 and Navy man at heart.

At the end of the night, with help from my dad, mom, sister, aunt, uncle and cousin, there were 2 left.

Tuesday Brewery
Last week, to check off an item on Kristen’s epic ‘Goodbye NYC’ bucket list, she and I went on a tour of Brooklyn Brewery. And it was awesome.
It was fun to see the facilities and it was fun to meet and hang out with the other tour-mates (there were 6 of us on the newly-instated Tuesday tour, which surely beats the hundreds they get on weekends).
And it was especially fun to have the beer tasting, where I was surprised to find that I can like hoppy beer and will now be on the hunt for Brooklyn Brewery’s reserve beers wherever I go. I haven’t gone so far as to think about brewing my own beer though. At least not yet.
A simultaneous celebration and lamentation
She said she wanted California, and out through April she goes.
Left alone for a while, hidden by concrete braces of that East side.
But now it has unfolded.
And we will miss her.
