The G train has started running at our stop since we've moved to this side of the neighborhood. Usually it doesn't make a difference in our regular schedules (the G train is the only train that never runs through Manhattan... It goes from Brooklyn up into Queens and back.) But as far as wanting to head to the neighborhoods in North Brooklyn, including Greenpoint and Williamsburg, it is definitely having an impact for the better! Last week, we were in Williamsburg to go bowling with some friends. Seth and I met there early for dinner and wondered around the neighborhood towards the river to sneak a quick peek at the city through the fence and overgrown weeds.
I used
Yelp.com to find dinner... And was very happy with the place we ended up at. Jimmy's Diner was just the kind of food I was looking for... Great atmosphere, super friendly server (one of those who's happiness lifts your own spirits), and Amazing fried pickles!
See our shadows... Me on the left and Seth on the right. And if you click on the photo and enlarge it, you should get a better view of the Empire State Building burning red in the background.
This was the first time I've been bowling since I've moved to NYC. I liked this place, and even more because I was taking turns with my husband (we were with a large group of people), I didn't have to completely pay attention OR take responsibility for the lowest score of the group :)

gorgeous shots - I loved hearing more about living in NYC instead of the shopping and all the glamor stuff
great shots. don't you just love when you can find a new place to eat and everything seems to click. i love bowling but haven't been in years. glad you had fun. hope all is well.
Love seeing your exploring! (And that way of bowling is totally what I need!)
love that first photo... every new yorker's dream: space!!
Gorgeous pictures. I haven't been bowling in forever, it's always fun!
Kris... You are COMPLETELY right! Empty subways are a dream! (especially after riding a packed one standing all the way home and then finding this one a half an hour later almost empty... :)
I love these photos.
