Today I went to Governor's Island to volunteer at Pier 101 and also to hopefully paint.
It takes me about an hour to get to the ferry.
I gave it 1 hour 20 mins this morning.
I missed the ferry by EXACTLY one minute.
It left at 10:40.
I got there at 10:41.
There was nothing to do but wait 40 minutes (!!!) for the next one.
When I got to Governor's Island there was a kids' scooter someone had left for anyone to take for free.
I decided it needed a marketing campaign.
My marketing campaign was wholly unsuccessful.
Kedrin suggested I give it even more color.

It attracted this gull.
I named him Pretzel.
He is our official Pier 101 pet.
Sometimes I am just not very good at life.... missing the ferry by ONE MUNITE... and my marketing campaign only attracted one hungry seagull.
I ended up not painting- although my intention was to leave the boathouse by 2pm.
But it got really busy and I just couldn't leave Kedrin all alone to run the desk.

We were very short-staffed today.
So once again I schlepped all my painting gear around just to schlepp it back, unused.
What a bummer to schlepp your paint products around for no painting to be accomplished. You are a good friend to stay to help with the desk work.
