THE GREAT ESCAPE
This weekend I made the great escape — to jacob riis park and fort tilden.
Jacob Riis Park 
big footprints, little footprints, human footprints…
(not my footprints)
7AM
magical alcove with an abandoned picnic table in it
more scenic views of the men’s restroom
have you ever walked westward at Riis park, toward Fort Tilden? it’s like wandering into a bad neighborhood.
some wild flora
a friendly welcome message to beach-goers
a piece of whale bone, or some such bone
Fort Tilden
Fort Tilden is a bit creepier and less well-kept than Jacob Riis Park.
windowless building #1
windowless building #2
affectionately named “WOMP” by some hipster vandal
this building’s potential creepiness is dialed down by its lack of doors and windows

MAN: Why did you ring if you have keys?
WOMAN: I WANTED to give you a chance to see the MOON if you haven’t yet — it looks like something you could put in your mouth and it would rattle around against the backs of your teeth.
WOMP’s back door
mohave desert?
mohave desert.
Fort Tilden has a few more abandoned buildings that I didn’t find this time around. I will though.
