Greetings from Brooklyn\u2026 It's hotter than hell here so I am Trying to sleep on the very top of the roof of the boat to try to catch a breeze I'm just trying to use a sheet hopefully bugs and rain will stay away.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

I don't have anyway to post pictures or anything but imagine this:<\/p>\n

I'm lying under the radar antennas on this hundred and 50 foot boat right behind the Searchlight. I'm half naked sitting in one of the worlds largest cities and I swear I cannot see another human being. I see buildings in the distance but most of what I'm looking at is the back of warehouses and Just polluted canal. The sky is a milky gray green\u2026 Unnatural but kind of beautiful there are about four stars in the sky. There's a breeze that smells somewhere between pizza, garbage, gardens, jasmine, diesel fuel\u2026 And believe it or not it smells wonderful<\/p>\n

i think I'm hearing garbage trucks backing up but they're moving forward and backwards beeping is kind of like a lullaby.<\/p>\n

Also, I'm right under the flight path from JFK Airport in the planes going over some like waves crashing at the beach very big waves and a very nearby beach\u2026 But soothing nonetheless<\/p>\n

My toes are hanging off the edge in between them I can see the buildings of Manhattan. <\/p>\n

What a beautiful spot to sleep<\/p>\n

Night all, night Sam<\/p>\n
