Visited Al's homeland last weekend in the suburbs of Chicago === took trips to the Indiana Dunes and the Farnsworth House, played with his adorable nephew and niece, and saw Julianna Barwick at Pitchfork. One of my favorite things about being home with him is finding things like people pots from his 6th grade art class. Yes, that is Allen Iverson.

Montauk fools me into thinking I could be back home in CA...it is a pretty good trick. Passing along some of our top picks from this year's (and last year's) trip. Hoping to make it back out to the end of the island before the summer is over.

A Saturday just with my beautiful sissy K. Spent the day laying in the grass, munching on raspberries and pickles from Mile End while smelling some of MCMC's Garden from the Mociun pop up shop sale...just in time too as I ran out of my Hunter (so long until October).

A little bit of CA moved in down the street.

Took a visit to the Mociun pop up shop and came home with some Shabd. Said hello to the lovely ladies of Nightwood who generously welcomed my class into the space for a visit when the gallery housed their work earlier in the year.
