Sidewalk Solar System

Our Solar System (even non-planet Pluto) sketched in chalk on a sidewalk in the Hudson/Park neighborhood.

Signs of Autumn

The first fall foliage I've seen this season (on Jefferson Street near the Bung Factory).

A necklace of fake pearls hangs from the dootknob of a vacant building on New Scotland Avenue near Madison Avenue.

LarkFest Leftovers

Weight of It All

Gov. Cleveland

The Gov. Cleveland makes its way up the Hudson River en route to this weekends Tugboat Roundup in Waterford.

Odd Duck

Someone placed a wooden duck (possibly a decorative planter) on the board covering the drain at the eastern end of Washington Park Lake.  Perhaps it was a nod to the many ducks that make the lake home.  Unfortunately, a few minutes after this picture was taken, a boy used his fishing pole to retrieve this duck from the board...only to pitch it into the lake.  It was last seen floating forlornly on its side.

Frolicking On The Wall

Exuberant sketched figures cavort on a wall at the corner of Lark and Sherman Streets.
