pop and mercer met grandpa in the big city yesterday. the weather started off lousy, but the rain gave way to a wonderful day. to dodge the early morning rain, the gang stopped in for a sip of coffee and madeline at once upon a tart. before that, mercer enjoyed a cheese straw from murray's cheese shop. mercer guided pop and grandpa northward, through union square and past fish's eddy and the massive paragon sporting goods . mercer fell asleep just before we sat down for a BBQ lunch at RUB, one of the best BBQ spots in the city.
he woke up when pop and grandpa were finished with their pulled pork sandwiches, but mercer was not hungry at all. he wanted to play and explore some more, so we headed out back south towards washington square park. there, mercer had a healthy helping of swings and slides and played very well with the other children.
we even saw baby soda, a fantastic hobo jazz band that mercer was riveted by. on the way out, heading towards other music and camper, we spotted tv personality carson kressley.
after one last coffee for pop and grandpa at esperanto cafe, mercer headed home. he was in great spirits all day, despite not really having eaten anything. once mercer and pop got in the car, however, mercer ripped open a bag of apple chips, finished the whole bag, and promptly fell asleep.
baby soda: bring it on down to my house
