Pizza on the Go

First night actually staying in Philadelphia and the walk from the train station was hot and sweaty. 

Beautiful and lots of people around. 

A lot of people sleeping on the street too, but you know.   Such is life. I get rid of the tie and vest to let them dry out before the salt starts crusting them and dress light then head out into the night to take photos and do what I do while walking about. 

Mostly it’s about showing support.  Showing that walking at night should be something that no one should be afraid to do.  

To the folks sleeping on the street.  

Try to help folks keep their eyes open.
Don’t be afraid to ask for help if you need it.  

Make sure you drink plenty of water before you nap and save your good will or cash for when it’s really hot.  Then use them to steal a little cool air during the hottest part of the day.
Or vice versa during the colder months.
Even if it’s just buying an apple.  

Just remember to clean up after yourself.

  Honestly folks.  

If you’re out there and people see you taking care of the places you’re moving through or staying in it  will help you get off the street and into safety more often. And you know, if you see someone that isn’t cleaning up after themselves then you know something is really wrong and they really need help.  

Don’t be afraid to offer help.
Even if it's just sitting with them for awhile.

~first pizza, then the river to make sure no one’s swimming, then back for a bath to clean my feet and some sleep~
