Day 74




I met Liliya here in Peter Cooper Village today. She walked up to me with her arms full of shopping bags and very excitedly asked me to take a picture of her in front of the cherry trees. She then proceeded to dispense advice and wisdom, in her Lithuanian lilt, for the next twenty minutes or so, gleefully snapping away with her camera in the process. She loves New York and can't imagine being anywhere else, but says she doesn't think it's for everyone: "Normal person doesn't live here."

Con Ed has a fleet, too

March 13th, 2012



After seeing another NYNEX mystery trailer, I came upon about a dozen Con Ed versions all lined up near each other. A couple had warnings about flammable gas on them, so I think Shae is right: they must be some kind of portable generator.
