April 15 PM WalkWith the Northeast experiencing a nor'easter, Sunday AM walking consisted of Ms. walksBKLYN taking the Che to JJ Byrne dog park for a couple of poos, in torrential downpours and 25 mph winds. Luckily, the rain eased up enough, once evening arrived, that the Che and I could go out without getting completely drenched. Unfortunately, once we made it to the halfway point, the heavens poured right on our heads.
We did, however, get to see some of the less desirable parts of South Brooklyn, from 9th st., down to 30th street, while on 3rd Ave. Most of the walk has us in the shadow of the elevated Gowanus expressway, which often makes me wonder just how many carcinogens hover around that area. We did get to see a two 24-hour "video" shops, several auto body shops, and some fantastic graffiti (see below). 2.5 miles, but it seemed like an eternity because of the monsoon.
