Warner & Swasey Observatory

Have been here before [click 2013], and [click 2018]. Travelled on Euclid Avenue to get there, and miracle of miracles, it was smooth. For years that stretch of road (or any road) in East Cleveland was full of craters. A nice job of black top was about complete, and it was drivable throughout, there was other work still being done on cement curbs and walks.

I have read, the photographer Johnny Joo and some friends had cleaned and made shine this floor. What is under the dust, fallen plaster, a large refrigerator, aerosol paint cans, and other rubbish was a circle of the signs of the zodiac, and perhaps other markings. It is hard to see any of that now. It had to pleasantly surprise the first visitors that came after. I brushed away with my shoe to see Aquarius, the water bearer.

When i came to visit Wednesday, there were two other people touring. Jessica and Devon from Willoughby.

I have noticed some of my older posts have had their formatting changed. I generally post fotos in blogger's large version, they have been made medium, or small. The text copy has had paragraph structure eliminated.
