The River Road Train Tunnel in Yaphank as it would have looked back before the road was even paved~

Today, sadly the less than 8ft wide tunnel is riddled with really bad graffiti and garbage. You know, if you're going to be so bold as to paint on public viewable property.. it'd better be good.

New York Bunyan

Interestingly enough, this Bunyan Muffler Man has stood just a stones throw from my hometown for years though I've never had the chance to see him.
Yesterday we finally made the time to stop in to say, 'Hey Paul.' He is clearly well cared for, an excellent specimen.

Can you catch lightning in a bottle twice? Kenny has a very special little motorcycle with his registered, street legal 98' Aprilia RS250 here in New York. Interestingly enough, our friend Catfish also has a NY registered RS250. To see two of them parked together on the street is quite the rare treat.
The army of angry bees.
Catfish's '97 Aprilia RS250.

Just Play it Cool

Given this unseasonably cool weather we're having, it’s hard to believe we're in the tail end of August. Tonight was an exceptionally lovely 64 degrees. As the chilled air passed through my jacket, I felt like I was suddenly in another place in time. It won't be long now before the nights all feel this way, when the green of the leaves makes its exit and the first day back to school will be nothing more than a memory. Do you ever wish that you could just slow time down?
