While in the neighborhood for the Mermaid Parade, we got a hot dog at Nathan's Famous...

and rode the Cyclone, which was the most fun I've had in a long time. It's so rickety and amazing. Tyler and I squeezed in one ancient seat, which we periodically flew out of over rough drops.

After all the fun and games in Coney Island, we biked over to Red Hook, got some groceries to snack on and went to a park to watch the sunset.

After the big show, we hopped on our bikes and pedaled over to dinner. There was an impressive moon.

When I first moved to Connecticut from Asheville (land of 1,000,000 outdoor activities) I wasn't impressed with CT or excited to have New York 'in my backyard'. I've kind of had to adjust my summertime expectations, but it's been good. Instead of truly amazing hiking, biking, etc, there are really fun events to go to and city thangs to explore instead. I miss the quality nature, but it's been easy to enjoy what's here. The ocean's rad, with plenty of fat-biking opportunities. Things are A-OK.

A major difference between Project X Designs and replica watches sale other Rolex modifiers that you've seen my mention is that Project X mainly works on new Rolex watches. Please note replica watches sale that the watches in the images are samples, and as such have finger oil blemishes on them that create some unevenly toned surfaces. All Project X watches are thoroughly cleaned and meticulously finished before being shipped to their rolex replica sale clientele. Rolex isn't too keen on their watches being modified, but I am sure they love the ideas that Project X gives them. They have an odd protectionist sentiment about their timepieces. Preferring that you should want only what they offer - which audemars piguet replica while spectacular, is limited. Given the sheer popularity of Rolex watches, it comes with no surprise that wanting to make a "Rolex watch your own" is an expected desire given the swiss replica watches options seemingly available.
