Not only a palindrome...

it also reads the same UPSIDE DOWN!

Accidental Photo: Shoes on Subway

Because I use the camera in my phone,

I sometimes take "Accidental Photos"

(The ones you didn't even realize you'd taken

because your finger was on the button.)

Here's one from the subway:

NYC early summer footwear fashion.

Little League Parade

A parade of little league ball players & their families

walked up Broadway today.

The elevated subway was being worked on in our neighborhood

and the workers stopped working

to cheer the young players on,

honking the train's horns and waving their helmets

as the little sluggers marched by.

The mosaic eye is watching you...

Today I made a wonderful discovery:

at the Chambers Street subway station,

the walls are decorated with mosaic eyes.

Creepy. Awesome.

New seats on the subway!

We got some new seats on the subway!

See the orange and yellow seats in the top left corner?

Those are the old seats.

But see this shiny seat that is almost the same color as Eeyore?

That's the new seat!

New color. Slightly uncomfortable in the current color scheme.

And, as always, slightly uncomfortable to sit on.

Man on the subway with a giant pencil

I saw this dude on the subway today

standing there with a pencil that was taller than him...

Sometimes I love this wacky city.

Coney Island amusement parks in the winter

Today I had to take a 2-hour subway ride to get to a school where I was teaching.

My 'ukulele and I went all the way out to Coney Island.

I snapped this photo of the deserted park from the train--outdoors & elevated at this point.

Romantic.

Scary.

Cool.
