There was a meeting today at the Madison Square Boys and Girls Club in the Bronx to discuss a teen forum for young men. I boarded the 2 train and headed uptown. Surprises followed.
Surprise 1. The train ran slowly. Very slowly. All right, that is not necessarily a huge surprise. But it led to …
Surpise 2. At the 3rd Avenue – 139th Street Station, the announcement was made that the train would next stop at E. 180th Street. Two stops beyond 174th Street where I wanted to get off. I decided I would go ahead and ride to E. 180th and then catch a downtown train. I am glad I did because it led to …
Surprise 3. The mosaic seen above. Amazing work.
At the request of a family member,
I added a happy photo.
I think the shirt will be appreciated too.
I must have been three and living on Neville Island.
Never did like an umbrella.
… and bald.
I’m in the process of digitizing some old photos. Right now I am working through a group that my aunt (Hi, Aunt Pat!) gave to me.
Not sure how old I am in this one – I am at my grandparents’ home in Grove City.
This was, and is, my happy face.
See you along the Trail.
I often post a photo of a toast to my father on this day, the anniversary of his death in 1974. This year, I have been digitizing some old family photos. It seems appropriate to post a photo of my father. We were younger then.
Thanks, Dad. Miss you.
See you along the Trail.
Yesterday’s workout led to today’s soreness and stiffness. As a result today became a rest day. Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.
Some cooking did take place.
