Late afternoon as the Fifth Avenue Fair's winding down. I've been to enough of them to want to walk the whole way any more, but I still like to catch the last few blocks at this end. Better than just walking the avenue is stopping every now and then to watch the tide of fairgoers pass along the route. It's kind of like sitting at Ruby's and watching the action on the boardwalk. I love it all, the sausages, the funnel cake, the mix of the crowd. I love the subversion that tilts the normal views of street and storefront, especially on the home turf of 9th and south. Everything familiar shaken up & rearranged, everything blessed.
