GET DOWN to GET UP

Last Night

Rode the Lexington Avenue Subway uptown.
Exited at East 103rd Street and turned left...

Headed West
Past the used clothes bin near the painted house fence...

 Past the old school, and up the steep hill...

  To Fifth Avenue.

Turn The Corner

Woooooo-Hooooo

Yeah!

Gave my camera to a tall woman to shoot this...

Oh--oh, how I danced (no pictures of that however) from hip hop through Disco to the fifties and a line dance set.  It was such a lift.

Inside to the Graffiti Exhibit

Strike a pose

take a quick tour

grab some shaky shots

ending with Keith Herring

and these painted jackets through glass

 The Roots

 ~*~
Then back out to the terrace

where a channel was formed for running,

tumbling, somersaulting professionals...

Whew

Intense energy

Intense concentration

Next time I'll shoot film.

Then uptown one block

to take a peek into

El Museo del Barrio

Back downtown for goodbyes

and one last line dance.

Then across the street to the Fifth Avenue bus.

Home by 10:30.

 ~*~

Depression's got no space to breathe when you're dancing!
