SOOC - Dog Day

Security of all types was present at the event...
SOOC is back. With my phone at the ready last Monday, I attended the ceremonial opening of the new West Haven (CT) train station. With the governor and dignitaries present, the police presence was great: MTA (railroad), CT and West Haven police departments were there. Along with many canine police officers, mostly Yellow Labs. They rested on this warm humid day - but ready to spring into action if needed. And happily, it was not :)

Whimsical Windows - Train Platform

Toby hosts the fun architectural meme Whimsical Windows/Delirious Doors. Earlier this afternoon, I drove our son to the train platform in Milford Connecticut. In the interest of speed, I kindly asked the lovely Patti if she could capture the 'station' and she kindly agreed. Taken from the north platform (southbound train toward NYC), the opposite platform was captured. There is no station as such these days with e-tickets the norm...happily the early 1900s (?) building is still being used, and seems just right in B&W. All aboard!
