Downtown...

I took my new scooter to work on Wednesday, and got a lot of comments.
"You just rose to the best vehicle in the parking lot."
"After seeing you on that, I think of you in a whole new way." (Not sure if that's a good thing, hehe.)

So I stopped at Zona's in downtown Binghamton after work, they had a "Yappy Hour" to benefit the Humane Society, and got a few more:
"I LOVE YOUR SCOOTER!!" (Shouted by a young lady walking down the street.)

Even later, when it was settled comfortably into its temporary foster home, a guy from up the
street came down to ask about it.
My conclusion- Binghamton must be 'scooter-starved'!!

Courthouse monument

Every Friday in downtown Binghamton, they have a lunch concert and farmers market. So I took advantage of the beautiful weather today and sat on the courthouse steps to sketch.  Shame I left before the music started, though. Lots of construction going on to beautify Binghamton.

Rebuilding after the fire - Binghamton NY

Last December, there was a large fire that nearly destroyed this building. They are now repairing it, and using this huge crane.
