Up on the Roof...

A Lighter Shade of Brown

"Smooth, chillin', just kickin' it....on a Sunday afternoon"













Palmer always has a vision. Just go with it and it‘ll be all good. And as soon as he figures it out, it’s Go Time. We call it the 2 minute warning. No time to really figure out what/if you need anything. Like Santi says, “just bring your head.” This is what Palmer had in store for us on this Sunday afternoon. VAMOS!!! We're going swimming at The Yankee's penthouse condo.



Before going up the elevator, you have to get past Security Guard Adris Biedrins.




Check out the view of Rosario and the Parana River from The Yankee's balcony. It's awesome...



I do miss watching Entourage episodes, but it's not too shabby hanging out with Queens Blvd. himself.





That's Palmer looking out at The Island which is one of his favorite places to be in Rosario. It's about a 15 minute boat ride from the docks. He was going to take us camping out there but instead it started to rain and hail cats & dogs that afternoon.

We walk up the stairs to get to the pool deck level.




It's cool to see other peeps flash the "peace signs" for pics.



And The Yankee himself 'kickin' it.





"When this old world starts getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face
I climb way up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares just drift right into space
On the roof, it's peaceful as can be
And there the world below can't bother me
Let me tell you now...


















...When I come home feelin' tired and beat
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet (up on the roof)
I get away from the hustling crowd
And all that rat-race noise down in the street (up on the roof)
On the roof, the only place I know
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Let's go up on the roof (up on the roof)...









...At night the stars put on a show for free
And, darling, you can share it all with me

I keep a-tellin' you

Right smack dab in the middle of town
I've found a paradise that's trouble proof (up on the roof)
And if this world starts getting you down
There's room enough for two
Up on the roof (up on the roof)
Up on the roo-oo-oof (up on the roof)
Oh, come on, baby (up on the roof)
Oh, come on, honey (up on the roof)"
