Max Family Garden

At the end of Our Building – St. Ann’s Warehouse is a lovely little enclosed garden. The warehouse is by the Empire Fulton Ferry – Brooklyn Bridge Park.

I will continue showing my old sketches for a while. This one is an impression of an alley near Washington Square that I drew in the late 1960’s.

Captain’s House in Chincoteague

I enjoyed Chincoteague-step-through-time-tours led by Cindy Faith so much I wanted to hear more. So we paid a visit to the Captain Timothy Hill’s House. Cindy is a docent there. We learned how the house was saved and moved. If there is a fire in the wooden chimney, they run out quickly. They pull on ropes attached to the chimney to get it away from the house.

Cindy told us one of the family’s stories. It was about a young girl, around 14 years old, who was much loved by them. The girl’s boyfriend took a job on a ship and sailed away for a while. Then he came back to town. He found out that the young girl was going to a dance with another boy. The jealous ex-boyfriend shot her and her mother. She was up all night attending to her wounded mother. The young girl seemed OK and only had a minor wound. Sometime during the night, the young girl passed away. Later her ex-boyfriend shot himself.

Main Street Chincoteague

The little theater was showing “Before the Lighthouse.” Marc and I are reflected in the door. There are hoof prints of the famous Misty of Chincoteague in front of the cinema. Across the street, not far from the movie theater, is the Chincoteague Island Library.

Eastern Shore RR Museum

Eastern Shore Railway Museum – Wikipedia is in the City of Parksley in Virginia. We happened to drive past and stopped to make a few pictures.

I included an old ruin of a house not far from the museum.
