As part of my exit fom Twitter, I came across a series of photos I took / tweeted when I ran from the Bay to the breakers of the peninsula. It was basically a personal run of the Bay to Breakers course.

While I’ve run the official course twice, I’ve run the equivalent path scores of times. I love this path because it gives you a chance to see how the city has changed between runs. These photos date from July 2015.

I recently learned that the NYC Department of Records had put their tax photos from 1940 online.

I thought I’d look up some of my family’s old pre-war residences and see what we could find. I found the site of my great-great-great grandmother’s shop in Williamsburg(h) and the house my grandfather dwelt in in 1940.

After Sunday’s snowstorm, we took a walk and the trees looked freshly flocked.
