Seventeen in Pictures

Another HOT one!
The forecast for days ahead said 85 and partly cloudy...
What we got was 98 and sunny as all get out!

We weren't mentally prepared for that I have to say... and there were a couple of stretches we were dragging pretty hard...
But, we marched on- and for the second year in a row, got to the Brooklyn Bridge right at sunset- evaporating any tiredness and rejuvenating our spirits.

This year we had the usual suspects, plus a few first-timers-
And for the first year ever, there was a new promenade open on the north side of the Brooklyn Bridge- so we were able to get some pictures from angles we have never seen before... really cool!

Some shots below- hope you enjoy-
And as always... hope you join us one year!

If you're not familiar...

To your left-
"About the Walk" tells you most of what you need to know-

Looking around the site gives you an idea of what we do every year-
And watching the video on left side mid-page gives you an idea of why-

#17 is on a Wednesday this year-

We'll be back at our customary 10:30 am time- Leaving from the corner of 207th and Broadway.
(A-train to 'Inwood- 207th St.' station; 1-train to '207th st' station)

Some folks join us for the whole thing...
Some join us along the way for a stretch...
Some meet us for our traditional Pre-Brooklyn-Bridge Beer at The Beekman Pub, then walk the bridge with us (spectacular!)....
And some just join us after for dinner or drinks.

Whatever your inclination-
We hope to see you along the way!

A little late is better than not at all...?

And we're on to #16!
The "About the Walk" section to the left pretty well sums up what this is all about in case you've never been here...

If you take a look around... you'll see that I've been horrible at posting pictures from the walk... and yet I always promise to do better...!

So this year, I promise.... No pictures from the walk!
(That oughtta get some pictures posted!)

We'll be starting the walk an hour later this year-
11:30 am
But the other details remain the same....

We'll take off from the corner of 207th and Broadway-

Tuesday, September 11th, at 11:30 a.m.
Walking our way through Manhattan, taking the city in...

Our customary stop at the Beekman Pub around 5:30 to let the post-work crowd catch us, then across the Mighty Brooklyn Bridge.

Dinner and drinks to follow- the where to be determined.

Walk the whole thing-
Join us along the way-
