With all the weird people that hang out in the park--hippies on blankets by day, bums on benches by night, and everyone in between--I've been wondering if I'd ever catch someone doing drugs.
I catch people, including myself, drinking alcohol from time to time. As I've mentioned before, a gun has been pulled. Crazy vagrants accost dog-walkers on occasion. I've even seen someone pull up in a car, get out, and pee in a bush.
Well, as of this weekend, the park is officially lawless. The ferocious roommate Jurassic J had his parents come for a visit. The standard family visit involves a walk to Alexander Michael's followed by a stroll to show off the park. So it was about 8pm when they walked by a couple of young guys in jeans and tee-shirts, possibly high-schoolers, hanging out beneath some trees off to the side of the path.
"It's been quite a few years since we've smelled that," was the remark made by J's father, who probably didn't think as highly of our neighborhood anymore.
For the record, the graveyard off of Graham Street seems to be another semi-secluded location favored by pot-smoking teens. If you're interested in having a little fun, just skateboard on over.
