Went to this cafe’ for Meg;s birthday. Great food, great wife, great day. After the cafe we went to a mid century modern antique shop.

I took this photo at a indie craft fair in BCA Cyclorama building in Boston, MA. There was a lot great hand made stuff at the fair. The bathrooms were very industrial and had high ceilings. I thought it was cool that the plumbing was in front of the mirrors.

A scenic drive, a great view, a nice bit of history, a little picnic, a lot of bees, a little letter boxing, a little Public Rest photography. Mount Holyoke Range State Park >>

The Lobster Cooker restaurant has sold over 1 million lobsters. I don’t like lobster. I had the clam chowder. It was pretty good.

Because this restroom was such a revolving door of retired RVers and travelers like myself I only had a 15 second window to get a good shot without someone walking in on my and thinking I’m some sort of weirdo. Still this ended up being one of my more interesting shots.

This is the first of a hand full of PR photos I took while on vacation in the great state of Maine. The Portland Museum of Art had some amazing work, my favorites being a collection of Julia Mararget Cameron’s work and a collection of N.C. Wyeth paintings.

At the Clynelish Whisky Distillery in Brora, in the highlands of Scotland. Me and a few mates recently purchased a crap car for £93.75 and drove it as far north as we could. We reached John O’Groates in the end, as far as one can get without getting wet!

Along the way we stopped by many Scotch distilleries to have a taste of their single malts and pretend like we were whisky drinking guys on some intellectual highbrow tour or something. While at the Clynelish Whisky Distillery in Brora I snapped this for this site.

YO! Sushi is a sushi restaurant in Liverpool, UK. It’s one of those places where the sushi moves around on a little conveyor belt allowing you to pick the dishes you like the look of, and avoid the scary ones. I absolutely LOVE sushi, and so I was real pleased to hear that my city got a sushi place at long last. It’s situated in the new ‘Liverpool One’ shopping area.

Billings Farm & Museum was established in 1871 and is still a working dairy farm today. As a kid I must have taken five of six school trips there. When Meg and I went we got to see border collies herding sheep, baby cows, some giant horses and the restored farm house.

My wife and I went looking for small storage boxes. When you have something in mind that you want but can’t find it anywhere it can be really frustrating. With a last ditch effort we tried the Christmas Tree Shops. It was fruitless as well. We lost the battle that day. But the storage box war rages on.

We went to the beach for the day yesterday. It was sunny (for a change). My legs are a bit burnt but what’s summer without a least a mild sun burn. The bathrooms had recycled waist toilets and this “sea breezed” mirror.

I love the tree surrounding the urinal. Makes for a unique office.

As many of you know, my wife and I just bought a new house. For curiosities’ sake we stopped in to Raymore & Flanigan, a furniture store, to see if they had anything in the realm of modern design. Talking to a sales person I soon realized they did not. The first clue was that they didn’t know the difference between modern and contemporary. That’s not a put down for R&F or the sales person. Just a signal that R&F isn’t our type of store.

After a great weekend at Art All State my wife and I went to the Flying Rhino in Worcester, MA. I got clam chowder and a burger that had prosciutto on it.  The Bathroom was surrounded by a snake painted on the walls.

The bathrooms in Ikea are not as nice as one would expect. They are dark and plain. Pretty much like a Home Depot or Walmart Bathroom.

I took this before seeing Star Trek which I really enjoyed.

A shot in a public restroom at a private high school.

First post to Public Rest… taken at work with my cell phone, so it’s pretty grainy.
