   Window

   On a long Friday lunch, my friend Jed and I embarked on a tourist journey a few minutes from work to Fort Point.
   
   The Fort is only open on Friday, as luck would have it, and we ended shooting all the film we had in our pockets that day.

   Hallways of Doorways

   On a long Friday lunch, my friend Jed and I embarked on a tourist journey a few minutes from work to Fort Point.
   
   The Fort is only open on Friday, as luck would have it, and we ended shooting all the film we had in our pockets that day.
   
   I walked on to the top floor, and looked down this hallway, and froze in my tracks, and yelled, "Jed, come quick, and bring the tripod!"
