Another Kind of Lilac to Sniff

IMG_1371
My new feature about the Lightship Lilac and her current exhibition just hit this week's Downtown Express. Read all about it here. As a bonus, here are are extra stray photos I took while on board. If there are beads of sweat on the lens, it's because it was 105 degrees! I felt like I was on the African Queen!

Who knew it was International Day of Friendship in Brooklyn today? I didn't until I was walking through Fulton Mall on my way today's performance of The Iron Heel and passed a parade! Here's some of what I passed (and passed by me):
