🛳 ♥️ ✨ Chillie Falls
For people who make cruising a lifestyle, not just a pastime, being marooned on land was devastating. Charles Falls Jr., known as Chillie, is one of those cruisers who set sail as much as possible. He has been on 55 cruises and in recent years started hosting a YouTube show about the industry.

NYC
As I was snapping photos of the New York City streetscape, this old Italian man ran out of this old Italian restaurant. “You both need to be IN the picture,” he said. “I will take it for you.” I gave him the camera. He looked through the viewfinder. “If you two were the bookends,” he said. “I would very much like to be the book.” The sounds of this city make me smile.
