Fish & Monkeys

We didn’t think it’d be this hard moving into a new space. The past five days have been a nonstop lesson in DIY office improvement. We’ve made close to a dozen visits to Home Depot, we spent an inordinate amount of time figuring out how to put down IKEA laminate flooring, and there’s been lots of blood, sweat, and tears shed along the way. But we’re close! And we welcome you to keep tabs on us for the next few days as we finish up a few things (wall moldings, wiring, clean-up, moving in furniture, etc.) and complete our relocation.

We’ll have the webcam on our MacBook on 24/7 for this whole week at: http://68.246.91.201:8080/webcam.html.

Note: We don’t have Internet and we’re using our Sprint EVDO card, so it’ll look more like still-shot updates rather than streaming video.

It looks good even when worn on the West Coast. (Pictured: JM in LA)

Want one? E-mail us at weekenders@barrelny.com and we’ll hook you up!
(But hurry, quantities limited!)

Check out the Weekenders page - we’ll be adding more events very shortly.

We’re very pleased to announce that we’ve launched a new selection of wines for Barrel to Bottles. This month’s selection is sparkling shiraz, Australian red wine produced in a manner similar to champagne to give it the bubbly fizz. We’ve enjoyed taking long sips from our bottles, and we hope you get to check them out as well.

In other news - we’re moving! It’s been less than two months since we created our current Barrel workspace, but we came across a great space and location in Manhattan, so we just had to make the jump. Stay tuned for updates as we figure out how to put in the flooring, fix wiring, and find bargain furniture!
