Wow, yesterday was a hot one! Just shy of 2 degrees from a NYC record high temperature, 92 was hot enough for me.

I found some cover under this foliage and behind this ancient shack of a structure on East 22nd Street between Voorhies Avenue and Jerome Avenue. Don’t ask me how I got here from Wal-Mart. There aren’t even any in New York City. But, hey, who’s complaining? Not me. I’d rather be outdoors in 100 degree weather any day, rather than a cold retail store. At least I have my freedom.
