The weather was awesome today. I was able to spend some time on Governor’s Island, this morning shooting some promo stuff for a boot company.

It was my first time back to Governor’s Island since the Clicquot event. The setup was at picnic point, on the north end of the island, and the catering crew used these awesome little jars to serve the drinks.

Reagan and I brought our bikes to the island, once. It was totally crowded. This time was a lot different than the other times I was there. It was completely empty, and awesome.

I am feeling a lot better today. Thanks for all of the get well wishes, BTW (It is totally working). But, I decided not to push it, and skipped my run. I can’t believe that tomorrow is already Friday. I’ll be spending the morning, snapping some shots of Piper in her swanky new threads.

This is my favorite shot of the weekend. I hope that I can go again next year.

Reagan read this great article in Time Out NY, earlier this month about Governor’s Island. I had been reading random things about it on Gothamist for the past couple of months as well. We finally decided to check it out today. When I say check it out, we really went for it. We rode our bikes from our house, to the Battery Maritime Terminal (took the ferry to the island) did a lap on our bikes and rode home. It was probably a little over 30 miles total. Reagan was resisting a little on the way back, but ultimately pulled through. She still looked great too.

She is especially tough, being that in honor of the NYC Triathlon happening tomorrow, we also logged a few miles running this morning, as well. She didn’t quite make it through the movie tonight and had to head to bed early, but I don’t really blame her.

On the way back, I was putting the camera back in my basket, after shooting a few shots of Reagan, in Riverside Park, when this really nice lady offered to take a photo of us together. Notice how I am totally sticky and beat-down. Notice how Reagan looks looks fresh as a daisy. Totally typical.
