This One's Depressing.
Springtime in New York can be beautiful. Who would ever want to leave this?

Well, for Kerri, the greener pastures of her hometown in Arizona were calling. To my great dismay, she decided to go back to the big AZ . Shannon has already moved out of their apartment to Long Island with her beau, and since this was Kerri's last weekend here in NY, I went out to dinner with her on Friday night.
But first we had to go to Forever 21 and show how much we love their uncomfortable shoes (Kerri refuses to get a pair of shoes in any shade but black or brown).

We had a nice Italian dinner and on Saturday morning, the super foursome that is Kerri, Shannon, Jennifer and myself got together to have a photo shoot, courtesy of Kerri's photographer friend Jay.
We met up at the Gansevoort Hotel in the Meatpacking District.

Jay, who has photographed for magazines and tons of weddings, told us about his ideas for the shoot.

It was pretty warm out, but beautifully sunny, the perfect weather for our purposes.


Kerri's such a natural. She can't get enough of the spotlight.

Jay was a great director.


He knew all the best spots to take us.


While he did some individual shots with Shannon, we kept ourselves busy by being our own photographers.


We found this random shoe tied to a no-parking sign.

Shannon and Kerri tried to decipher its deeper meaning.

... while Jennifer was busy becoming America's Next Top Model.


It was fabulous!

After that, we had the photo-taking bug.

Especially when we saw this photogenic laundry.

We bid Jay a fond adieu and went to the roof of the Gansevoort. They don't allow pro photogs to shoot up there, so we thought we'd just get our own rooftop shot. (oh, by the by, I'll post some of the professional photos when we get them back.)
But we were exhausted, so we sat down and joked around for a bit.


Kerri reflected upon our fair city.

We finally found some poor tourist to take our picture. Well, I don't know how poor they could have been, considering they were staying at the Gansevoort.

Later we went to Floren's diner for some tasty brunch.


Yesterday Jennifer and I went to Kerri's for one last dinner. It was sad to go into their apartment. The walls were so empty, all of our paintings from the last two years packed up or taken away.


Shannon's room was pretty empty too.

As was Kerri's, practically.

Kerri couldn't take this painting with her on the plane, and Shannon apparently didn't want it, so we took it downstairs to put in the trash. However, I found a random nail in the wall and insisted we hang it.

Luckily, Jennifer volunteered to take the painting. God bless her.
Well, it's the end of an era. Shannon is out in L.I., Kerri's gone back to Arizona, and in a couple of weeks Jennifer will be in Italy for a year.
It'll be a lonely summer. But it was good while it lasted.

love,
