There is a tiny part of me, I must admit, that wishes to live surrounded by green fields.
No, I don't mean to move away from Brooklyn or from Carroll Gardens, but whenever we leave the city and drive to other parts of the country, I always imagine what my life would be like if I lived closer to nature. I also have the bad habit of looking at old houses alongside the road and imagining what they could look like if I could renovate it. Take the place above. We came across this old barn in North Carolina on our way to the beach. With some fixing-up and a woman's touch, this place could be quite lovely. Don't you think?
I do think, though, that I would miss running into neighbors and friends on Court Street...

so great to see the sunrise in s.c.
what a great theme
the meetings, meeting and more meetings about preserving the 'hood will go on in a crowded, sweaty room, everyone will have their self righteous cause to go home and gossip
never realizing the sunrises you are enjoying even exist
but
they enjoy being part of a club, meeting, etc
