weekend recappage
while
i hate
seeing summer end
if i had to choose
between
having
weather temperatures humidity like saturday
vs
sunday
it would be a choice
made with some sadness
i would choose
sunday's fall like feel
to
the oh my gawd i am melting of saturday
speaking of saturday
i went to governors island
the best part of the day
was the ferry ride
7 minutes
of
breeze
wind
air moving
if you're here visiting
or
you live here
but
have never been
go
the ferry is mostly free
other times its $2 round trip
the actual governors island ferry building
is
adjacent to the staten island ferry terminal
on
south street
there was an art fair
those are plastic drinking cups held together with those ziplock tie thingies
this huge giraffe
was
covered in graffiti
i confess
to using my 300mm lens
it was hot
i wasn't in the mood
to get closer
sorry
there is a bike rental place
all manner of bikes are rentable
my friend and i
got
this little pedal cart
it was a lot of work
we had to stop for coffee
as pretty as
the island is
as filled
with
art and history (google it) it is
nothing
compares
to
the view
from
the promenade facing lower manhattan
