Hot Dog Memories

 The closing of a fast-food restaurant usually isn't very news-worthy, but this is the type that gets an exception. The Nathan's Famous Hot Dog location in Yonkers NY was closing. From what I've heard, it had been there since 1965 and was their 3rd store, so it's got a fair amount of history. The reason it kinda hits me personally is because this is where we took the first "Minty Picture" (sniff sniff)

This is the huge sign out by the street. During this farewell weekend the place was packed. There were a lot of nostalgic people taking pictures, us included. Click on the "Read More" for lots more pictures.

A Real Mario Party!

Guess what day it is? Er... night? It's the release of the new Nintendo Wii U video game console! We ventured out to Rockefeller Center in New York, at the Nintendo World shop to check out the party that was going on.

We were lucky to get these cool light-up foam sticks they were giving away for people to wave around. Also this is a nice view of the Nintendo store corner. The store wasn't going to open until midnight but the party was going on outside.

Leftovers?

So I'm browsing through all the pictures we've taken and thought I'd share some random stuff. Hope you enjoy!

This nicely lit huge wall is at the Parx Casino in Philadelphia. The colors shift and change. We would have taken more pictures INSIDE the casino, but of course you can't take pictures inside casinos...

Snow!

Yesterday we got a big bunch of snow. So what do we do? Go out and snap some pictures, of course!

 Here's a shot of the snow pouring down at night. I find it neat that the snow makes night time a lot brighter as the white snow reflects all the lights.


 Aaaah! It's like the whole world is frozen! Will life ever be normal again?! Haha okay I might be over-reacting here.
 

Cleaning off the car roof. This snow is twice as deep as I am tall! Too bad they clear the roads, who wants to go to work instead of making a snowman? Or better yet, a snowpony? Sorry no pictures of snowponies, we had to go to work...

Sandy's Visit

We were lucky in our area to have not been completely wasted by Hurricane Sandy, but there was still a bit of fallen trees everywhere. The day after it came through, we took a walk around and snapped some pictures

 You may not be able to see this, but this is the bike trail we frequently ride. Right under this pile o' trees.

Busy Relaxin'

Hi! Still taking pictures, I know it's been a few weeks since I last posted here's some of what I've been up to...

 Here we are in northern New York, on a scenic winery-tour day. I didn't do the wine-tasting thing since I don't drink, but I still had a great time exploring. These views were amazing!

Free Dirt!

Okay we passed this sign a few times and finally got around to stopping and taking a picture of it. It was late at night so they were not open but maybe one day we'll go back and actually get some dirt. After all, they are giving it away FREE!

In two places at once?


Here we are on the New Hope-Lambertville Bridge on the Delaware River. To the left in this picture is Pennsylvania and the right side of the river is New Jersey. Both cities on each side are filled with old-style main street shoppes. It was a very fun day exploring around.

Aww!

It's so hard to resist the cuteness of baby pets at the pet store. It's fun to go look and "awwww" for a bit...
 
 This cute puppy was shivering, so we nicknamed it "Shivers." It was so adorable, we are certain it will get a good home.

This kitten was swatting at me! I'm a PONY not a mouse! Can't we stay and play for a little longer?

Chewy?

If you've ever played Apples to Apples, you'll find this picture plenty funny. We all couldn't stop laughing and HAD to take a picture of it. Also posted a few more random pictures, hope you enjoy!

A Few More Pics

Here's a few more pictures from a couple of different adventure days!

 This is in Playland, which is a small but awesome theme park in Rye, New York. Even though it's almost 90 years old, this ride is a highlight gem of the park. Click on the "read more" for um, more!

Meow?

Hey everypony! More fun pics!
I like shopping and discovering funny t-shirts. Too bad they don't make them in my size.

Food Stuff

Hi everypony! I'm usually photographed along with things that are bizarre, weird, or just plain demand to be shared in a sort of "can you believe this?" way. Here are a few pictures and some thoughts about 'em. Hope you enjoy!

Okay, This is a real thing? I know I shouldn't judge before I've tried it, but honestly my tummy hurts just thinking about how bad this must be for a pony's health. I wonder if it's financially viable to put random junk on a menu as a dare, if "flavor curiosity" can tempt enough people to try this thing?

Cupcake Monster says "Hi!"

 Here's a couple of random fun pics from my adventures.
 I made a new friend! This Cupcake Monster didn't survive the trip home. He tipped over and smudged himself all over the container. Poor guy. Now he lives on in our hearts. Or somewhere else inside us since we gobbled him up, probably our thighs he was loaded with calories!

So Intense!

Hi again here are some random nature pictures to bring cheer to those in need of, um... cheer.
This picture is not as clear as it was seeing it, but there is a second rainbow to the right. What does it mean?! It was super bright like Rainbow Dash just flew by twice really fast.

Summer Movie Time

 
 We went and saw a couple of movies recently. One night while our cute girl friend was working we saw Battleship to pass the time. The movie version was actually similar to the game in a clever way. If this is a new trend, I'd like to see the movie version of Pictionary maybe?

To Boldly Go Where No Pony Has Gone Before

A one-day trip to Washington, DC. So many museums! I love museums because it's like all the stuff you read about, but THERE IT IS! It's like, the actual THING! Not a movie prop or a picture in a book, but that ancient or important thing is right there, in front of you! Oh my, I'm getting carried away, haha. Enjoy these pictures!

One of the highlights of the trip. This is in the gift shop of the Air and Space Museum, of all places. It's way bigger than I expected. I wonder if I could fit inside? Beam me up!

Still Having Fun? Yep!

Hi! Just posting up some random fun pictures. I'm still jumping around having a good time all over the place!
Out for a bike ride, we came across this lovely flower. I wanted to pick it for my friend but it was in somepony's lawn so I just picked a picture instead.

Star Wars Holiday?

Well, you might not be checking this blog on the appropriate date, but in case you are... May the 4th be with you! I'm not quite sure when this became a fun sort of holiday to celebrate, but can anybody pass up a chance to enjoy a holiday?
Here I am with my buddy Anakin but he's not in a good mood. Cheer up already! I have the high ground or something in this picture.

 Here I am on the tram getting ready to go in the park. I'm so excited I can barely contain myself!

Fun Day #1


Here's how this all started. I had just made friends with a very cute girl, who had to go to work on a Saturday. I got to hang out with her boyfriend all day and we decided to take pictures, to send to the cute girl and help cheer her up. By sharing this story, I hope it can cheer you up as well?

 
We had lunch at Nathan's Famous Hot Dogs. The cheese fries are a treat!
