Morning Walk #14 - Hudson Riverwalk
70 degrees and the humidity is palpable
People wearing jackets are making me sweat
Closest highway crossing to the riverwalk is not pretty but there are some benches
Flowering shrubs growing next to and through chain link fences
Pier 54 - you can still make out the rusty traces of long removed letters for Cunard White Star
An older jogger looking like she's about to collapse but wearing a cute skirt over her tattoed legs
Scavenger checking the trash receptacles for cans and bottles
A line waiting for the use of Mr. John
Two men wearing fluorescent green shirts and red plaid kilts
A low marble wall - an AIDS memorial: "I can sail without wind. I can row without oars but I cannot part from my friend without tears."
River traffic is confined to ferries until finally...a barge escorted by a tug boat
Ducks and floating bottles - for some reason reminds me that my first childhood awareness of litter was trash in the lake
Walking back through streets of rowhouses
Looking at the very fashionable clothes in the window of a children's store
Finding my way back to my neighborhood
Steps: 5794
