Cooling off

This week was a much nicer week with temperatures in the 80s and some days even in the low 70s! We're already at the end of July, but there are still two more months left of pool time. The pool I'm working at this summer will be open until the end of September.

Right across from the hotel pool another hotel

is being built. It seems like it is rising a floor

almost every week. Soon it will be much taller

than us.

This isn't the clearest photo, but Tony

had commented a couple weeks ago

that my picture of Columbus Circle

in the morning didn't look as quiet 

as I had suggested. This is what it really

looks like at 6am. No people,

no cars! 

 My good friend from Toronto, Chris

is traveling across Canada and the U.S

this summer. She has been sending us 

unique postcards from along the way!

On Thursday this week a television

network hosted a party at the pool.

They decorated everything in yellow

and threw these beach balls in the water.

The stacks at the Columbia library

always look like a set for a horror film. 

There must be ghosts here...

The lobby of the hotel I work at is 

very modern and sleek. This abstract

"sculpture" is behind the front desk

area. I see it every morning when

I come in for work. 

I hope you all are enjoying some cooler weather wherever you are. If not, I hope there has been lots of pool time and ice cream! See you all next week!
