Last Days of Summer.....

Tuesday before Labor day----next week schools open, fall begins, a new year is set in motion---so this week perpetually becomes the "week of waiting" , a kind of dead week which simply seems invented to serve as a bridge to the fall. Strange, I can remember as a child, treasuring this time---the time after camp, the time before school began---a kind of limbo that I could enjoy---and the amazing thing is that the identity of the week has not changed, in all these years.
Last night after watching the game at South Fourth, tired, butwalked up Metropolitan Avenue to Lorimer--fascinating the way the streets move into and off each other in Williamsburg, also how short the walks are. Feel excited about having the time to walk and explore again, maybe some Monster walks this weekend, Williamsburg to Fort Greene, or even to Eastern Parkway? Possible?
