Saturday

                                                                        Cosmos at the GreenMarket, Union Square

In August New York is rather empty of the usual sort of people,

 except ones like the poor crazy lady who lives in the hedge.

It fills up with other people. One day I'd like to go on a bus tour at

night and see everything with new eyes.

Looking north up 5th Avenue. The Flatiron Building on the right.

Some dramatic sunsets lately. 

Possible Occupations

If I were a firefighter I could spend Saturday morning washing my house. Such fun to have a really powerful hose.

If I were a princess I could lie in my pretty pink bed..............

.... devouring book upon book.

Working at Zaro's bakery would allow me  to keep company with cheery Lady Liberty.

I suppose I could sell shoes, but this wouldn't be my top choice of occupation.

Flowers are more like it.

When I die, I hope it's like Joe Ades who died in his bed at 75. We will miss his colorful banter.
