After years of discussion, we design and build an addition to our house, beginning in the summer of 2004. Here, I apply construction adhesive to floor joists. | |

I take a moment from eating lunch at Ling Ling restaurant in Ithaca to take this photo, Oct. 2006. | |

Holding the camera at arm's length, I take this self-portrait at Coney Island on the day of the Mermaid Parade, summer 2007. The same ferris wheel can be seen more than 50 years earlier on the first page.
