I went to Rhode Island two weekends ago with my friend Eric. His uncle has a big party every year where they make a whole bunch of apple cider. It was great but even better was the cider! It was really cool to get out of the city by car since I never did that when I lived here before. We also got a chance to go to the beach and throw some rocks.

Travelin Songs
Me and Rebecca made a record over the last year! Together we are called Western Gulls and the record is called Travelin Songs. Rosie drew the birds on the cover. I also made a new website so it wouldn't just be my name, you can listen to "Travelin Songs" and more here: http://realgoodrecordings.bandcamp.com/!

October is the busiest month!
October has been very busy so far with lots of visitors. More to come at the end of the month too! When Mariah was here we went to both the Met and the Natural History Museum. Here she is on the left at the Met with some armor, in the middle with me on the roof of the Met.
I had somehow never been to the Natural History Museum before but it was great. We saw things like this ox? Later Christina and I occupied Wall Street
Then on Monday night Becca and I went to go see Jens Lekman and the next day we visited the Unisphere in Flushing!

Rego Park: Real Good
Here are some pictures of my new neighborhood Rego Park, it's kind of far into Queens and because of that it's kind of weird, two blocks in one direction feels like some city in another country with fruit stands spilling out into the street and every store sign in a different language, two blocks in the other direction and you're at the mall. I'm doing some reading about New York and I discovered that Rego Park was designed by the Real Good Corporation, hence "ReGo".
On the left is my building "Walden Terrace". On the right two of the markets close to my house. There about ten markets within about a five minute walk (actually probably more like 20 markets) but they each seem to have a specialty so I end up going to a lot of them for different things. Also not for away is the mall and Queens Boulevard which is 12 lanes of crazy:

Back in New York
I've been back in NYC for about a week now, I live in Queens now, it's kind of far away from a lot of things but my apartment is nice and it's a new place to explore. I've had one day of work so far, it was just a meeting and things will start more on Monday. Emily came to visit over Labor Day weekend, we did a whole bunch of stuff and it was nice too see the city again with her. Here are some pictures from the first day she was here when we went to Coney Island I took the one of her she took the one of me. Her visit inspired me to do some sort of "take yourself on a tour" book so I'll probably post from illustrations I'm working on for that soon.

Bike Trip Pictures
We just made it back to Hilo after riding from Punalu'u Beach over Volcano. It took us six hours to ride the 30 miles (and 4000 feet) up the volcano but only one and a half rainy hours to ride the 30 miles back down to Hilo. Other than that the weather was nice for the whole trip and we didn't regret not bringing sleeping bags! Here are some pictuers from the trip:

My bike coming down to Punalu'u and the first campsite near Waimea.
