Here’s What I Did Yesterday in NYC (Vol. 2)

by Tony Shea December 18, 2019

I started out at the Winter Village at Bryant Park. There’s dozens of stands set up selling all sorts of different stuff (eat your heart out Dr. Seuss): christmas ornaments, and jewelry, and artwork, and food. It was chilly so I bought a cup of hot apple cider with a cinnamon stick in the middle […]

Here’s What I Did Yesterday In NYC (Vol. 3)

by Tony Shea December 18, 2019

  I started walking on the High Line down in the Meatpacking District. The weather has been great this year, November was the warmest on record and today in the first week of December the temperatures made it into the low 50s. No complaints from me. I think of this as ideal walking weather, especially […]

Let’s Hike Williamsburg Bridge – Shall We? [PHOTOS]

by Tony Shea December 18, 2019

Thus far into my urban exploration of New York City, I estimate I’ve walked somewhere around 1100 blocks. Along the way I’ve hit a number of storied landmarks: Central Park, Empire State Building, the old Whitney, the new Whitney, Grand Central Station, Washington Square Park, Chinatown, the Carnegie Deli to name just a few, as […]

Here’s What I Did Yesterday in NYC (VOl. 1)

by Tony Shea December 18, 2019

The New York City Marathon was happening yesterday so I thought I would head over to the finish line to watch it. But when I was on my way to Central Park I could already see that it was going to an absolute madhouse: police cars, ambulances, scores of people everywhere, more than there always […]

National Beard and Moustache Championships – Behind the Scenes

by Tony Shea November 24, 2015

What makes a champion? Is it how high you can leap? How fast you can run? How many points you can score? Is it perhaps something less definable, an inner resolve, a vague courage, something quietly growing from within that separates you from the rest? With these question in mind I set out to get […]

Let’s Go to Eisenberg’s – Shall We?

by Tony Shea October 18, 2015

Right now the New York is experiencing what I think of as perfect weather, cool enough in the early morning that you might see your breath and then warming into the 60’s as the day goes on. I was up and out early before the sun was up, tromping around the city. And I was […]

UFO Over New York?

by Tony Shea September 12, 2015
