A Few Hours in the Lowlands
On an outing to the lowlands of New York City (a.k.a., Brooklyn), the moist hot air filled my lungs and dampened my clothing. Admittedly, I had written directions to 9 Noll Street, but reconnoitering the nearly empty streets from the subway was as amazing as being in Naples because of the wonderful wall paintings on many buildings. My ultimate objective was to see the “Urbanity” exhibit at the Bushwick Senior Citizen Center. The show was curated by Daryl-Ann Saunders, a dedicated photographer and curator who will be expanding her residency at the Center into a long-term project which will narrate the experiences of long-time residents of the Bushwick section of Brooklyn. My hat’s off to her and best wishes.

Very eye-catching mural
Looming thunderstorm forecast for the afternoon
A light moment between the English statement and the Spanish translation
After the Artist Talk
Just happened to like that smile!
Was there something on my mind as I was returning home?
It's been in the news for a few months.

Back at the Morgan Ave. station.
The train home arrived in less than 1 minute.
