It's a chilly 19° in New York with winds up to 25 mph.  That means it feels like it's under 10°! 

I'm bundling up big time to head out to Brooklyn to have lunch with John Gallagher at Five Leaves, the restaurant Heath started with a friend.  Stay tuned; I'm sure John will have his handy-dandy I-phone camera with him.

Thanks everybody for the FB on the lightball.

It's unusually warm here the last days. 10°C (=50°F). But beginning on Christmas Eve, it's said to get colder each day.

That's today? It's another 22nd.
Have a good time and don't forget to take lots of pics.

Good morning. Temp. 17 F in Philadelphia this morning, but the sky is sunny and clear.

Seven below zero here! But also sunny and clear. Pretty much the same as yesterday, in other words.

My son and I went out shopping, and to lunch and a movie (rather, movieS -- he saw Seven Pounds and I saw Slumdog Millionaire). We had to sprint between the car and the buildings. Being 14, he would leave his jacket in the car and run in his short-sleeved shirt.

Oh, to be 14 again.

Wow, Five Leaves!  Wish I could join you!

No one eating cherries these cold days?

You were with us in spirit, Paul, as were all here who love Heath!  We had a nice, leisurely lunch of very yummy food.  It's a small place, but welcoming, not overly decorated but with some nice touches, like a copper-bottom bar, distressed wood walls, and a cool bathroom with a porthole and scented candles (I smelled like that scent all the way home!).  John will post one of his signature photo-essays soon, probably.  Keep an eye on the Heath Remembrance Forum.

John gave me a beautiful Christmas present--a lithograph of a pencil sketch of The Shirts on one side and Jack and Ennis on the other, copied from photographs we all know and love.  I found it on the artist's website:  http://www.jeffeckert.com/hollywood.html.



Thanks so much, John!

I sure look forward to the Five Leaves report.

Meryl, that is a beautiful gift. Very very pretty.
