Yes, that's a molded plastic bowling alley bench. No idea how it got there. Great for spring conditions, though—climb up, drink beer, ski down, repeat.
Again, plenty of snow.

A kid bites into a hot dog. Taken in Prospect Park, Fall '05, for a project where we had to take pictures on the street.
From Central Park I took the subway down to Brooklyn, to Prospect Park. I had two objectives here: to see the Painted Bunting that had been visiting the park for the past month, and to see the Black-headed Gull that had also been visiting the park recently.
Prospect Park was opened in 1867; like Central Park, it was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux.

FORTUNATE PROSPECT

by Northern Prospect-Fortunate Bid, by Lucky Debonair
Lifetime: Starts 39; Wins 13
History: The stallion Fortunate Prospect may be the first Old Friends retiree with more cred, as, well, a stallion than a racehorse. The Florida bred has a respectable track record (about a dozen stakes wins, including the the San Vicente at Santa Anita at the age of 3 and the Equus Handicap at Garden State in course record time the following year), but it’s his family tree that has grown with distinction.
Considered one of the truly great stallions in Florida breeding history, Prospect sired 537 winners, 28 of them stakes victors. His 632 runners—including top filly Fortunate Card and chief earner Suave Prospect—have earned over $38 million on the track. The stallion also gained recognition over the years as a top broodmare sire: His daughter Successful Dancer is the dam of multiple stakes winner Successful Appeal, who now stands at Walmac Farm.
Prospect stood at Farnsworth Farm, near Morristown, Fla. for nearly two
decades before he was pensioned from the breeding shed in 2005 at the
age of 24. He was donated to OF when owner Michael Sherman liquidated
his farm in early 2005 and needed a new home for his long-term resident. Needless to say, we feel very Fortunate to have him.
