You clearly chose the UWS and *then* the beach. Well chosen!
LOL. didn’t even see the Zabars and Murrays bags at first…
I take the UWS with me wherever I go.
I noticed the bags. Gary is the sort of person who brings fish to the ocean.
that is hilarious. Made me go back for a second look at the cartoon. You’re right. He’s brought lox to the ocean! 🙂
I miss the days when I could grab a beer at the Boat Basin and sit on the nearby lawn enjoying a nice view of the Hudson while relaxing in the shade.
Location location. Beachfront!
tough choices..
Happy Labor Day weekend!
❤️🤣 Love it.
pool!
Definitely go to the beach!
Beach please!
I guess whoever moderates these comments has gone to the beach!
Couldn’t let this just slide by…. So good, really. The capers for the lox.
Are the Berkshires a choice? I vote for the Berkshires.
Hudson valley: also a winner!
Lol, love the signature hat.
Ahhh…
I am hard at work on the UWS while you all are at your second homes or on a nice vacation!
