Reload New York 2009
By Jeremy | January 20, 2009
Since pictures tell the story better than I could, I’ll let my photo diary from Saturday’s Reload New York speak for me, for now.
View the full set and slideshow here (170 pics, including Harvey Carey, Dr. A.R. Bernard, Larry Acosta, Ron Luce, Virginia Ward, 20/20 Vision for Schools, Ambassador, Adam Durso, Bo Boshers, the throngs of people, and more).
