The Great Plotnik

Saturday in Brooklyn



The Great FiveHead and The Great Ducknik went up to the new Highline Park the other day. It's an old New York Central elevated track, long abandoned, that the city of New Shmork has made into a really innovative and peaceful place to walk, right in the heart of the city.



They also use the Highline now for fashion shoots.



Yesterday the Brookniks went to the Clinton Hill Flea Market where they park a zillion bicycles next to the baby strollers and a lady slices up delicious fresh prosciutto for sandwiches.





Tanorine Restaurant in Bay Ridge has moved to a newer, spiffier and larger space now, but the food hasn't changed a bit. It's Palestinian food like at Old Jerusalem in Saint Plotniko, only with a lot more choices, like this lamb feti and a really delicious eggplant casserole.




It's raining in the East. How is back on the other side of the continent?

I just heard something last week about this park on the railroad tracks (John Stewart?) - interesting idea.

And Zito blew away the Cards last night. The forecast is for Dodger misery here in the west. And sunshine until Tuesday, when it will be moist.

Down here in the tropics it's sunny and warm, slight breeze, moderate surf. Perfect.
