Flushing, NY

Shea Stadium, Flushing Meadows Park, Queens County, New York

I finally made it to the hard hats after being delayed on the Grand Central Parkway due to a car accident. I only got to spend an hour with the guys and stayed well away from the moving vehicles. I'm working on a Club Chaos Eye Candy feature but am having a difficult time selecting the final photographs. I took a lot of shots and am very pleased to report that the crews have made significant progress since my last visit back in July.

I am so looking forward to sharing my photographs with you. Stay tuned for new shots of the Citi Field construction site. The new stadium has some very nice features. I should have them posted sometime early this evening. I'm off to pick up Noah from school.

Here's a sneak preview of what's to come from my turtle run. Enjoy!

Igor is a brilliant mad scientist in training with one dilemma. He was born with a hunchback, and in the country of Malaria, being born with a hunchback means changing your name to Igor and slaving  for a mad scientist. Everyone living in the imaginary country of Malaria aims to be an evil mastermind.

Each year, the king picks one diabolical man-made contraption and uses it to blackmail the whole world. After Igor's master becomes a casualty to one of his own devices, Igor covers up his death and sets about inventing a monster in his late master's name.

Assisting him are two clumsy inventions of his: the Brain, a disembodied, not overly bright brain suspended in a jar, and Scamper, an quick-tempered cat (or was he a rabbit?) with unwanted immortality. 

Like Remy in Ratatouille, Igor is a whiz kid with a calling: He just wants to invent amazing things, but the social order and tradition have conspired to shut him out.

My kids loved it and I liked it enough to not walk out. If you're really dead set on going to see this, I won't discourage you from making the trip.
