The theme of October and November is treachery. Being the recipient of treachery it turns out, is very time consuming and sleep-disturbing.
(Jun 15) This photoblog now bids adieu to the Sony DSC-N2 I bought in a rush to replace the short-lived Sony whatever that came after the Sony Minidisc, which came after the Kodak somethingorother. My main concern when buying the N2 was that Billy was nearing the end of his days.

Now that St. Vincent’s is closed, I wonder what happens to the monuments?
Construction in the city happens at a glacial pace.
(Jun 12) It’s called a Tulip Tree, and I’m told its wood is hard and straight. Probably used for ship’s masts.

(May 4) As has been my way since moving back to Long Island, I walked to IBM from Penn Station round-trip.

Exchange metal for paper. Exchange paper for different paper. Exchange paper for magnetic bits at bank.
I heard them before I saw them.
There was a deer in this photo too. I can’t find it now.
