JFK (or near enough)

 Laurent Malone and Dennis Adams set out one morning on a walk from downtown Manhattan, across the Williamsburg Bridge, and ended up at  JFK Airport. They shared a camera. At any time one could use the camera to take a photograph and the other would have to take a photograph in the opposite direction. Monique and I did this today. Not in NY. Not to an airport. We went for donuts. But we took a camera and took photographs in the spirit of JFK. I own that book. It's lovely, clad in rubber, and no text. Here's the photographs we took. 

I won't go back and identify who took what though the last two are pretty obvious. Just know that every other photograph was in the opposite direction of the one before it, in pairs. Sometimes I went first. Sometimes Monique went first. There we are. 

House

 There's something intriguing about the open windows on the upper floor and the way the curtains dance with the outside. 

I went for a walk....

Death of a dollar store.

Best shop in Vancouver. No joke. 

$1500/month. Includes Wifi. No smokers. No pets.

 Fred Herzog was here-ish. I copied his framing in a different photo, but it's just not the same. This city changes faster than I care for it to. I am grateful for the artifacts I find, but I long for a greater sense of permanence.
