Capones, on N 9th. The sign is the vertical dark thing on the wall, just above the small door. It was named after a speakeasy in Chicago where Al Capone used to hang out. The original bar and two stained-glass windows from that speakeasy have been brought here. Its worth checking out.

Most used Fitness Parcourse
So many of these you see around the country sit idle or barely used, but this Parcourse (fitness stations) is always in use when I pass by it at McCarren Park. What a great place to exercise - outdoors and free.

This does't look right.
This does't look right. I certainly will not be standing under it during the next wind storm.
Xootr Push Scooters and Kick Scooters
Xootr Push Scooters and Kick Scooters
The very best way (well, maybe a close second to running) to get around when you are detouring is the XOOTR. I have been a fan for many years, and had my Xootr Street model for about 3 years. I heart xootrs. They are truly well-built, lightweight adult sized kickscooters that roll easily and are a blast to ride.
I was visiting the xootr site to buy a carrying strap, which attaches to the scooter so you can carry it easily when it is folded up, when I saw a beautiful model that was not availble when I got mine.
The Xootr MG has a dark charcoal colored, magnesium deck that is SO cool looking. Plus, at 9.9 lbs, it weighs a whole pound less than mine, and is $40 less. If only they took trade-ins . . .
Heather, this one's for you.

Nice hat seen at Union Square
Actually, the whole outfit is pretty special. He's probably an up-and-coming designer.

Today, between Meeker and Havermeyer, on 7th, in Williamsburg (just in case you DO need crap).
