You know those magical days where you feel like you have lived days in just hours? Yesterday was one of them. The event started at 2. We had plenty of time in the Jeep to talk about everything under the sun and we did. The first stop was in New Jersey to visit with an artist at the Riker Hill Art Park. After visiting with one...we went on to meet many. The cast of characters was full and quite interesting. One artist studio after another our minds were blown by beauty, some crazy and lots of unique. It put many puzzle pieces together for me of the lives I always hear about at work.
Next it was off to Brooklyn. I got to see real hipsters. It was fun and funny. We didn't get to navigate through the streets or check out all of the cool places but we were on a mission. We found the Lovin' Cup as if we were in Alice in Wonderland. A dark little place with a list of fancy whiskeys. I don't do whiskey but a Brooklyn Lager in a fat pint glass did just fine. You know what they say..."When in Brooklyn...". I had three of the most amazing and oh so tiny sliders. The meal was wonderful but we settled on this place because down a hallway and through a curtain and a door was another space. The Cameo. They do art, music...you name it back there. We watched Strand of Oak open up for Crooked Fingers and they were both really, really good. Really good.
It was then back to PA. So... lots of new things squished into one big fat new event and a road trip that left me inspired in more ways than one. Thanks Leigh Ann, Todd, Ivan, Mr. Nose, Tim and all of the others that made me smile. It was a good day.
