The view looking out my window this morning when I woke up. The view inside my window all day. These are refugees from the EFMS science lab that rode home with me on the subway in an insulated picnic bag.
You can bet that there will be more of these shelves in the future…and better organized too. Note that there are both desert and sub-tropical plants. Every city home with windows could have at least one of these display shelves. They’re like an aquarium for plants and probably a lot easier to maintain. Using modern methods there’s nothing to it and they’re good for the soul.
Incidentally, If you remember the lyrics to this song, you’re older than I thought you were.

‘Oh the weather outside is frightful,
But the fire is so delightful,
And since we’ve no place to go,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!’
Hey, that was easy! – Dean Martin’s rendition has recently been revitalized! Forever Cool!
Glad to read that the weather isn’t keeping you from enjoying the unique ‘NY expereience’. But where are the dog show photos!?

Dean Martin? You are older than I thought you were.
Of course my attitude about the snow these days is heavily influenced by the fact that I am not living here as a commuter. Yes, I do remember those cold, snowy, sleety winter days on the LIRR, sometimes having to ride between the cars, sometimes in a car with no heat.
Darn, the 132nd Westminster Kennel Club show somehow got by me. I remember watching it on b&w TV back in my “dog days”. Oh well, maybe I can catch the highlights on YouTube.
