Garden Party Chronicles: Part I

It's not often that I get to go hang out with my old buddy Rachel, so when she throws a garden party i just make time to stop by. With my possie, obviously.
Dave, Dave, Dave. It's good to have you back, we missed your antics.
Here's the birthday girl, pictured with me, and map.

I have no further comment except to say that I promised not to publish the photos of Dave trying to get all up in that Liza.

Rachel's mom's an architect. My mom is an architecture critic. We both grew up with modern furniture. I like that.

An Te Liu: Style and Epoch.

Got up at 9 today because last night I went to bed really early. So I thought to myself, let's bang out some blog posts before I completely forget the wheres, whens and whos that go along with this Canada Day long weekend. Below we see me and An Te Liu, where he opened his show Style and Epoch at the MKG gallery on grand old Ossington Ave. I don't go to art shows without my trusted companion Paul. Not only does Paul's demeaner and style command respect and admiration from those who surround him, he's in the art business, and his advice over the years has proven to be priceless.
And of course, my eccentric sister, (and recently-arrived roomate - sorry about waking you up the other night btw - you know how it is when Dave's in town...) chit-chatting with some of her Berlin friends who were in town. Notice Sputnik handbag. Well done Clara, well done.
The artist himself, deeply immersed in conversation with another Berliner.
Art is fun.

Flowers and Chicks

One of the best parts about living in the west side is the roses and other flowers that really bring out the best in our neighborhood. Here are a few I snapped when we were en route to the beacs for a few drinks.
The best part about it is that the gardens here will only get better and better as the summer goes on. So i'll keep you all posted.
One of our favorites west side ladies, rachel, doing her thang behind the bar at the beacs.
