Was lost, now found

Wednesday, September 10th, 2008

Note: I don’t typically loose track of rolls of film. About a year ago I took some Holga photos of bulldozed land, and then went on a bike ride to Valley Forge and back (about 50 miles). I guess I assumed that the roll of film wasn’t exposed correctly and forgot about it. About a week ago, my lab called me saying they had this roll of film that I never picked up. And this is what was on it!

Circle Thrift Moving Day

Monday, September 1st, 2008

Today was moving day for Circle Thrift in Fishtown, Philadelphia. This involved not only loading things on trucks to bring down the street, but also a human-chain that spanned two blocks. The chain had maybe about 50 (plus or minus) people handing boxes, clothes, and other things, one by one down the line to the new location. It was a sight to see in Fishtown, as many people in the neighborhood stopped to ask about what was happening. It was an exciting day for Circle Thrift. The new store is going to be much more accessible and larger to fit all the donations that people drop off every day.
