Roscoe, New York: The Town the 21st Century Is Beginning To Remember

For Thanksgiving, my family and I went to Roscoe once more. This time, there was actual snow on the ground. It was beautiful. As Zach and I walked around town, we stopped in front of the school to look at the art deco architecture around the face of the building. They don't even use the original main entrance any more. It's a shame.

In town, there was a stenciled spray-painted image of our President-Elect on the wall of one of the buildings. It was a show that some people in this town are aware that the 21st century has come. I don't always like the common era, and I like the anonymity of time in that place. It was interesting to see, none-the-less.



Down by the river, the ice and the coldness of the water interacted with the sand and the light to create some fascinating effects.
