Pearl Street and Wall Street

It’s time to move on. 

This blog is moving over to Instagram. Where I will post snapshots and snippets of my “personal micro-culture” (to use William Gibson’s phrase), bits of reading and writing and crafting and traveling and city living—anything, really, that looks interesting.
