In February 1969, New York City was hit by a major snowstorm. That month the Vietnam War was still raging, and the North Vietnamese army was attacking in the south. Pres. Nixon ordered the first of many troop withdrawals. The peace movement was strong in the city.
I went out to take some photos and found this message on the Upper East Side, near Fifth Avenue. The snow was still fresh, clean and beautiful. The fence surrounded a private park—it’s a very fancy neighborhood.
“Blowin’ in the Wind:” Written in 1962 by Bob Dylan when he was 21 years old. It was the most famous of the 1960’s protest songs. It was the title song for Peter, Paul and Mary’s 3rd album, and it was the most successful version—even more so than Dylan’s.
Beware soft curves…

“i wonder if I’ll see any faces above me
or just cracks in the ceiling
nobody else to blame?
“Oh man what I used to be
Oh man oh my oh me
Oh man that I used to be
Oh man oh my oh me”
