I know I just made this joke last week, but it really is nice to hang out with old friends again - especially when I can still have them mostly to myself. (Angora Cat is a new friend, thank you, Morris Hirshfield!)

Couldn't have picked a better day to hold the official groundbreaking for the renovation of historic Hinchliffe Stadium in Paterson, NJ.
⚾
This vast Art Deco gem was the hometown ballpark of Hall of Famer Larry Doby and hosted the 1933 Negro Leagues World Series. And it's been part of the Paterson Great Falls National Historical Park (the falls are just down the hill) since 2015.

"It's the wind, the cleanness, great stores like Buon Gusto's with all the hanging salamis and provelones and assortments of wine, and vegetable bins—and the marvelous oldworld pastry shops—then the view of the tangled wood tenement child-screaming daydrowsy Telegraph Hill—" from "Desolation Angels" by Jack Kerouac, b. March 12, 1922. 📙-CB

"The world is a beautiful place to be born into if

"The world is a beautiful place
to be born into
if you don’t mind happiness
not always being
so very much fun
if you don’t mind a touch of hell
now and then
just when everything is fine
because even in heaven
they don’t sing
all the time"
