updated dispatch from the island

not so fast, the sky was clearing but as i was to quit the wgas, a downpour so a rush to leave became a little more time spent helping students.

and the rain stopped. i found though that there is a big difference walking from lightly populated areas to heavily ones than vice versa. the constant tripping over people as i was trying to escape the loop – trying to find a new way of doing so – meant when i was finally past the train stations. i had a hard time slowing down and i worried about the traffic on the eisenhower.

i tried my best – particularly since the light was better now. i did stop to photograph the usual subjects – places where it looked like people had gathered. did go through a roll of film. did fall back into some formalism. did try to vary my route - even took a longer way in a attempt to calm down and look better - but what was easy going seemed more forced coming.

i had hoped that some of the restaurants and bars for the meat packers would be closed by now so that i could photograph their façades no such luck.

now i fear that i am putting too much stress on the next wander.
