It was a beautiful day. Day one of seriously trying to walk a good two miles. Everyday? that’s the plan. Laura said “No browsing or stopping to take a photograph! No dead couches!!!”
But there I was, pushing a stroller with my nine month old grandson Roy. And here’s what I found a few blocks after I started my walk. I could not resist.
Abandoned furniture, ready for pick-up. A couch AND a love seat.
You know I couldn’t resist pulling over, parking my car, getting out and photographing the loveseat/couch.
The rain had stopped. I was on Penn Avenue just past Children’s Hospital and I saw it. It’s not like I’m driving around the city looking for discarded furniture. It’s just there!
Mary always says, take the pic when you see it as later it might be gone. Good advice.
Looks like an office chair, curbside.
You know I had to drive around, pull over to the curb and lift my phone for the shots.
Maura was in the passenger seat and captured this discard for me.
Another one for the collection. Garbage collection.
Laura was driving. I sat in the back seat on the left side on the way to the pool.
On the way home I sat in the passenger front seat. It was quick as she drove by.
I’d rolled the windows down.
I’d spotted the discarded couch earlier that afternoon but there was no place safe to take the shot. I knew we were going to drive that direction later d was hoping the garbage truck didn’t get there first.
Thanks Laura.
