Some sessions of the floating book shop are surprising. That was the case today on Bay Parkway. I bagged the lead parking spot on 85th St., a rarety when the bank is open. I had to lug the crates only 20 yards. I also had to keep an eye on the car, which was inches from the crosswalk but 13 rather than the required 15 feet from the hydrant. The lone traffic guy who showed didn't even give it a look. He did ticket the SUV right behind me, whose meter ticket must have expired. I'd been expecting unfriendly weather, raw cold and wind. Conditions were benign, pleasant. My thanks to the kind folks who made purchases, and to Jack of Chase, who exited the building carrying an armload of books. I'd expected ten or so. There were more than 20. On a somber note, Dennis visited and said he'd fallen off the wagon. Having no experience in such a matter, all I could wish him was good luck. A few moments after he left, a middle aged woman staggered by and asked, in a heavy Russian accent, about the flea market. I'd seen her pass scores of times, apparently sober, and she'd never addressed me. I hope it was a rarity for her.
