sour grapes

i had a great weekend

 i went down to the battery

 on

 friday 

did a little walk about

 had lunch with my friend judy

 heading back 

i walked up through brookfield place

 into my office building 

out on the street 

to walk to the subway

 you know

 i work in the world trade center 

you know 

i have fabulous views from my office windows 

you may not know

 that i have been expecting

 to get 

a pre-official 

opening visit 

to

 the new 

world trade center observatory

 the observatory

admission

 is 

$32

 to see the same views

 i have from my office

 albeit

a bit higher up 

well

 that never happened 

there were politics at play 

i wont even begin to try to explain the whys and wherefores

 i will tell you 

on friday

when

the sun shone bright 

and

 the skies 

were

 clear blue and cloudless

i was not happy 

i wasn't going to get to the observatory

 and

 i am petty enough 

to 

not want anyone 

who was

 to

 have a good view 

i am over it now 

here's a photo

 i took on my way to brookfield place 

the rest of the weekend'

 was 

errands and beautification 

sour grapes leave a bad taste

so 

here's

 hoping

 everyone who did get up 

got some great photos
