Taking a Break

If you haven't noticed, I haven't posted in a while. Not that I was the most consistent blogger to begin with. Anyway I started this project because of changes I saw in the neighborhood, not sure as to how to process them. Since Aug 2007 I have been active in a neighborhood group, the Sunset Park Alliance of Neighbors, which I urge you to plug into.

span-announce@lists.mayfirst.org

to join their listserv.

So that is it. Goodbye Blog, hello SPAN.
There is another woman who does a blog about the neighborhood, bestviewinbrooklyn.blogspot.com who is much more conscientious than I. What can I say? check out her blog. She is putting up a lot of important news and events.

One announcement:
this Thurs June 5 at 6 PM there will be a community-wide meeting concerning a proposed power plant project for the area. It will be at the UPROSE office located at 166A 22 St. Brooklyn NY.

Hope to see you there. If you are there, say hi.

Well I am not completely saying goodbye. I am going to put up some new pictures as soon as I download the disc. One of the reasons I am not such a great blogger is I don't own a camera (I have been using disposible cameras) so the visuals are not always consistent or up to date.

At least the mural is still there. Hopefully more neighbors will get involved in the fight to keep Sunset Park affordable, sustainable and people friendly.
For now, good night, Namaste and hasta luego.
