Wandering around the South End

August 24th, 2007
A few weeks ago I was shooting around in the South End and spotted a BVI photographer (barely seen in the top photo, but if you look closely, he’s off to the right) working on a façade so I took his photo, which made a neighbor a few doors down the street scratch her head in puzzlement. :D


alt=”" hspace=”15″ vspace=”10″>Around the corner I saw a half dozen utility company vans and pickup trucks. The smell of tar filled the air… Some streets have been patched so many times, even the patches have been patched!

Also, just a block away, emergency vehicles responding to a call. BTW, if you fancy fire engines, this Wiki page has some cool pictures.
