2 weeks from Home
I just got back from my 2 week vacation to the coasts. I was in New York for a week and Los Angeles for a week.
New York was a blast, mainly because I got to meet and see new and old friends. I saw all my favorite bloggers in Brooklyn while attending a fundraiser for a public advocate. We all got drunk and partied like we were old friends. I don't think I've ever partied with people I met online. I had a great time -- Thx bloggers --
I also went to a BBQ in the neighborhood I grew up in. I walked down past the first house I lived in and past a deli I used to frequent. After the partying in the city and Long Island, I went out to Orient Point at the end of Long Island to be with my sister and her family -- I get to see my little niece too. I was there for three days to relax and enjoy good food and family conversation. We took a tour of Long Island wine country on the day I was leaving. I wish I was more into the wine, I got sick of it after a while. When I went back to the city, I had one night to hang out in Manhatten - we ended up at this bar in the East Village -- KGB Bar -- great low key place. I wasn't up for much partying, so that ended my New York experience.
I'll go into the LA experience and more of the New York one when I have a little more time -- right now I'm a little tired.

KGB bar is low key. It's definitely not high energy.
Great to meet you and Norman Siegel thanks you.

I guess my definition of low key is different from other people's...I think it's a chill, not too hectic place..to me, that is low key.
