I couldnt' resist ordering the catalog for the auction of Robert Isabell's collection of art/furniture. It arrive earlier this week and I've been going through it wishing I could have lived in the space he lived in and had it decorated exactly as such. Well, my own personal style would have been mixed in of course. Living vicariously through the pages. ha. I posted about Robert Isabell, the event planner, earlier here. I'm going to see if I can include a walk-by his place while in NYC next weekend jsut to take a photo. :)btw, I'm going to print up Wyatt's suggestion that he emailed. but if anyone familiar with NYC wants to give me suggestions on getting from LGA to the West Village. I'm all ears. I've done the "$20" taxi thing before which was not $20. and thought I'd try a public transport bus this time maybe??? packed today and cleaned up the whole house to have it clean to come back to. also made some plans with a few guys in NYC. less than two days and I'm there, baby!!
(ED. hey thanks for the emails and suggestions. I'm prolly doing the M60 and N train one way, and the express bus on the way back! :) ahh yeah...)

Hire a car service; costs about the same as a taxi and much more pleasant. You don't want to waste your time on public transit on a trip to/from the airport. But once in the city, use the subway.

$45 taxi flat rate to anywhere in Manhattan. M60 and train (A,C,B,D) in Manhattan or (N) in Queens or one of the shuttles to Times Square. You could also try the q33to roosevelt ave in jackson heights and connect to the subway (7,E,F,R,V) there so you are not outside for an extended period. Hope this helps :)
yeh, M60 is best -- tell the driver when you get on that you need a transfer to the N train and he'll let you know when it's time to get off. Also, bring $2 in quarters for the bus, because you can't buy a metro card at LGA. Once you get to the N station you can buy a metro card and use that the rest of the way. It's easy, don't sweat it! New Yorkers are friendlier than Texans, I can promise you that! :)
