Well, it was very hot in the parking lot. Instead of whipping out my paints instead pulled out my ipad and started reading but at the same time observing. As hot as it was, I was truly impressed or stupified as bikers were unloading their bikes and preparing to ride in that heat. There were several families strolling down towards the lake noticed most did not speak English. They had that tourist spirit...don't care how hot it is I paid to get here and I'm going to see everything.A mom pulled up in her mini van. Sweating as she donned her Appliachian pack and herded 3 pre-schoolers towards the path to the lake. My mind snapped, it started a chant of.....no mas, go home! I wussed out and left after 2 hrs. Honestly was very anxious to get to Englewood Hospital and see my new grand nephew. Later that night, whipped out this little sketch of the undaunted bikers unloading their equipment.
Next Wed, July 27 Kingston Point Park, I will be in the Memorial Gazebo area. You have river views and a swampy area, you can walk down see the Kingston/Roundout Light House.
