Charlottesville – Page 10 – Black and White

Flying a sign

high street 250 cho — All of her signs had “God Bless” written across the bottom. That’s a trope now. Whether your claim is that of a homeless veteran or a Katrina victim or just a wise-ass gutterpunk with a sign that says, “I need beer,” writing “God Bless” on the bottom of your sign is telling passersby that you’re safe, you’re good, you’re just unlucky, but you’re right with the Lord.–Vice

Psalm 100

DTM — Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with
singing.–KJV

A clean, well-lighted cafe was a very different thing.–EH

Hudson River Greenway

Hudson River Greenway — Walked south on the Hudson River Greenway. The Charlottesville greenbelt is a very different walk. In Charlottesville the intersection of river and the land retains natural function plus native flora and fauna. There is communication going on between river and land. Loved walking the Hudson but the Rivanna has more to say.
