One of my friends Kuni and his wife, who live in Brooklyn, NY, have the most beautiful shop called Kanorado Shop.

He recently asked me if he could post a few of my trip pictures from my Jackson/Craters of the Moon Trip on the shops' tumblr page. Go take a look! Also while you are over there, you should buy something and support my pals. They are the most amazing people! The last/ONLY time I visited New York, his wife made the most delicious brie sandwiches and we sat on a real checkered picnic blanket. Also we were at Brooklyn Park listening to the New York Philharmonic Orchestra and during the final song there was fireworks. Oh, I had you at brie? I know, I'm secretly in love with her as well. You are required to live a very cool life over there in New York.

Update: I went back to look at pictures from the park event and it looks like we are sitting on a rather colorful, striped, regular blanket. Sorry, I lied. Our unrelated neighbors were the ones sitting on a checkered one.
