pretty light.

Close enough
Behind the Greyhound Station.
roofing
The roof on that building is being re-done, it's an interesting scene with an asphalt smelter on the street. My experience was very stinky, strangely strong and bad smelling asphalt!

Light and lines
That's winter light. But I was also attracted by the lines of the trees.
The Sylvester house was not far from this spot. It was moved in the early 1960s to the area where the Olympian offices now reside, but shortly after moving it burned down. If memory serves, I think it was believed to be arson but I could be wrong. There were big plans to make the house some sort of museum, I think. A very tragic turn of events for Oly.
