The L train from Brooklyn to Manhattan was undergoing construction so it only went to Union Square. I was trying to make my way to Penn Station and my only options left were to take a bus or walk. The snow had begun and the busses weren’t moving so I decided to walk. I put on some music and pulled out my camera and walked about 45 minutes to Penn Station. It ended up being one of my favorite afternoons in a while. If things don’t go your way, just grab your camera, put on a smile and enjoy life while it’s there.

While exploring Virginia, I came across this incredible used and rare book store in Fredericksburg called Riverby Books. The building itself was phenomenal. I planned to be there for only half an hour, but ended up staying for four hours, exploring the store and reading.
