Photo Essay: Yosemite National Park, California

I had occasion to visit Yosemite National Park in California recently. The only downside to seeing the park in fall is that it’s quite dry, which means the famous waterfalls are almost nonexistent. You have to be there during the spring to see the falls in all their glory. Still, there’s plenty to love about Yosemite year-round.

Here are some of my favorite photos.

I went back to see Jonathan in the show one more time before he left and recently went to see Jeremy. Both of these men are bona fide Broadway stars, but perhaps more people know Jonathan because of his role as King George in “Hamilton” and his extensive TV work. Theater buffs, however, are just as enamored with Jeremy, who broke out when he starred in “Newsies” on Broadway and is considered by many to have the best tenor voice on Broadway today.

Jack & Charlie’s No. 118 Revives the Glamour of NYC’s Supper Club Scene

ucked into a historic stretch of Greenwich Avenue in the West Village, Jack & Charlie’s No. 118 evokes a sophisticated nostalgia that feels both timeless and exhilaratingly now. With its moody lighting, emerald leather banquettes, glowing fireplace, and geometric tile work, the 3,000-square-foot space reads like an intimate supper club plucked from Prohibition-era Manhattan and elegantly revived for modern-day bon vivants.
