steveb leatherworks: the blather

last installment of a visit to this iconic NYC landmark.

Little dudes beefing it out with the big boys at the local ramp…it’s all good.  Tough for the parents to watch their little warriors grow some cojones, but good nonetheless.

This summer the boss and I went to Fire Island to spend the day with Pupkin & family at their rented beach house. it was a fun adventure, requiring we take a ferry, eat copious amounts of food and consume adult beverages. It was cool, a fun time in every regard.

chuck has had this wallet for a few years. he sent it to me, asking for a few snaps to be installed…no problemo.  chuck wears this wallet everyday and loves it, so he said.

nice….

 a bit nuts, the textures are awesome in the hand

LaManda is a spot we go to when we got the need to feed.
Some of the very best Italian found outside of Arthur Avenue..
oh man…the antipasto, the ravioli, the bread!

this is what hooky looks like on a nice summer day…..

heading to lunch

Is any local fair complete without a display from the military, a Monster Truck and a ride that makes you barf?

Dave has some story. I am not going to relate it all here, but suffice it to say, he had a restaurant, he made big money,  he hated it, he sold it and opened his “coach”. The food is killer and Dave is the kinda guy you want to go out of your way to support. I recco the philly Cheese Steak…it rules!

red sunburst fin wallet.front

Great color, reminds me of a guitar player i played with…his Les Paul was pretty damn close to this colorwise  and was the inspiration of this series of Fin wallets that have a sunburst guitar theme…available for sale…

this wallet is ready to go and comes with a brass chain

when up in VT not too long ago visiting with Jason and family, he was kind enough to burn 15lbs of magazines for my amusement.

Handy’s is one of those local places I always rail about.
Handy’s is a 3rd generation breakfast lunch joint, it rocks and it happens to be in Burlington Vt.

what is it with wings? why do we love ’em so much?

if you see Jake on his sportster…i have one word of advice..run!

All i will say about Big W’s is this>  it is the best I’ve had on the East Coast.
I drive 1.5hrs to eat Big W’s brisket. It rules.

remember when this was funny?

I admit, it still cracks me up.

this tank pouch has been on freddy’s bike for about 5 years. Not bad for a piece of leather that has been alternately soaked, dried and in general- abused. Not getting paid for it, just makes it better!
