Timelapse Junkie

~ randyaa ~ 2 Comments

I’m a timelapse junkie.  I like creating them, I like watching them, I find (good ones) absolutely stunning.  Not sure when this started but it is what it is.

Recently I’ve noticed a whole slew of them popping up on the ‘tubes and I thought I’d share a few of the good ones.   You’ve probably seen at least one or two of them.   I can watch them all over and over again though, and I’d bet I”m not the only one.

Ship Graveyard in NYC

~ randyaa ~ 1 Comment

If you’re ever in the NYC area and are looking for a place to do some kayaking, the Staten Island Ship Graveyard seems like the perfect spot.  I love seeing old decaying stuff and these turn of the century boats stuck in an old shipyard are simply awesome.  I’m kinda anxious to take a paddle trip through the middle of them, but I probably never will.

Check em out in the gallery below!

Mets 1 Yankees 0

Friday I drove down to Poughkeepsie to see Charles for his birthday. After arriving we went straight to the city to meet some friends of his and goto the Mets game. The Mets won. The game had nothing to do with the Yankees I just like to taunt Yankee fans. After the game we met up with Sanjay for a lesson in expensive drinking and a place to stay.

Saturday Charles headed back to Poughkeepsie while I headed to the International Car Show with Sanjay. Check out the 2008 Ferrari for a sample. I’ll post a link to the whole gallery once the photo gallery comes back up. After the car show we met my Brother for sushi at Lan and had probably the best sushi I’ve ever had. After dinner my brother and I went to one of NYC’s oldest pubs McSorley’s for some Beers. They only give you two options, Light or Dark McSorley’s and when you order a drink they always give you 2 instead of 1. After that it was time to catch the train back to Poughkeepsie so we said our good byes and headed out.

That’s my trip in a nutshell.
