Evening Drive

We just took a summer evening drive through the Buckingham Lake neighborhood down New Scotland Ave. to downtown Albany. We walked around on the South Mall and enjoyed the view before driving up N. Pearl into Menands and then took the highways back home. After raining all day and flooding throughout the region over the last few days, it was not surprising to see people take advantage of a beautiful evening. People were walking down the new sidewalks on Schoolhouse Rd. in Guilderland and there was a younger family singing in their small yard on N. Pearl in North Albany. A beautiful pink sky led the way westbound on I-90 back home. It amazes me sometimes that people leave Albany after work and risk their lives to get the hell out as quickly as possible because it was pretty enjoyable being out there tonight.
