Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Are coffee carts unique to NYC? Or do other citys have a fleet of silver boxes stuffed with coffee and pastries that appear in the pre-dawn hours and disappear by noon?
Miami-- especially downtown and in Little Havana/Hialeah. There are also trucks called loncheros that park outside factories or clusters of businesses and wait for workers to go on their breaks, and that serve full, prepackaged meals in foil containers.
Dammit. Now I want a pastelito.
The Western mountains are rugged and majestic and gorgeous and dumb. They don't know what's coming to them. Sure, you can get lost in the wilderness, but they have no subtlety.

Though the aspen groves are very gorgeous. I just wish they were really green, not that yellow green.

Yeah, I think the Washington State mountains are a whole different experience. And I missed the last H on Hoh. Ahem. Didn't mean to make her out to be a tramp. She's far from easy.
