Better Than Real Because It's Not.

Back to the dentist, back to the city, and back to the place with no purpose.
The dentist is about 100 feet from where I went to kindergarten.
That’s my old school on the other side of the cemetary.
Pete wanted to go back to Central Park, so across the Queensboro Bridge we went.
I took no photos in the park this time.
To and from this limbo I go.

(August 14) And finally… the footbridge.
The approach
Amtrak rolls like that here.
Looking ahead
The stuff bridges are made of
This bridge crosses just about everything except the water.
Had it been further back, it would have crossed that as well.
Looking back
And down the other side. I found these steps particularly difficult to climb because of their layout.
Nobody expects robots in the Bronx.
The outside of the Hunts Point Ave. 6 Station.
They should have spent more money on the inside of the station instead of the outside.
Who you callin a hoe?

(August 14) A couple of weeks ago, I’d figured to save time by walking to my customer one stop away on the local 6 train from the express 6 I’d gotten off of at Hunt’s Point Ave. It turned out to be a terrible mistake from that perspective, but I decided to go back with my camera, which I strangely hadn’t brought with me on the previous occasion.
You can see the footbridge, which turned out to be the focus of the traveling I needed to do.
No, the obelisk isn’t peeing, it’s a fountain.
Walking back toward the footbridge, I passed over the Bronx River on another bridge.
There’s several views here I don’t get from where I usually cross this river.
You can see the sky reflecting off the water.
Down in the water, there were thousands of fish.
This was the small blob.
That’s not an oil slick, that’s a lot of fish down there.
Still in use from the looks of it.
This one is a serious view-buster
Wherever there’s train tracks, there will be tagging, which pre-dates the Intertubes.
Viza informs me these are Amtrak’s tracks.

The non-event parts of June.
The strange sign person was feelin groovy.
Twitter was completely useless. Before Iran at least.
There was “gravy”.
This still claimed not to be a urinal. The evidence still claimed otherwise.
There was URL fail.
There was honeysuckle in Port Jefferson.
There was an unexpected local view of the Empire State Building.
There were many trips to Port Jefferson to do nasty work.

(May 10) The point of my trip out on May 10th was to see the de-fence Project. I got there too late in terms of lighting, but it got torn down the next day. Where I live, the landlord has put in dangerous illegal apartments the city knows about and has done nothing about, but put up some art without a permit, and the state takes immediate action.
This was a surprise. A carousel inside a storefront.
When I reached the end, the end was near for de-fence.
