New York City Photo Trip Report – Part 3
Wild Bill's Dark Ride Paradise
August 6, 2012

I'm ready to buy tickets. Right. Now.

These trailers, and there are upwards of 40 of them, are full of salvaged treasures. (This back area has a pretty rad post-apocalyptic vibe to it, so much so that portions of a new film were shot at the location recently. Here's a story related to that film, and to Middletown's Cosa Nostra connections.)

What a day. And what an incredible group of people, as nice as you could ever hope to meet, and as dedicated to this cause as you could ever hope they'd be.

Left to right: Dennis, Chuck Burnham, Wild Bill, Greg and John. Steve is seated.

And this is Dave, conferring with Wild Bill.

To everyone, and especially to Chuck and Wild Bill, thanks again, for both your hospitality and for the bounty of awesome you are about to bestow upon us, the unworthy.

Next up: my new most favorite place in Manhattan, The High Line!
