WAS is an old brick mill building and sits alongside one of the canals in Lowell. The studios are really quite nice, and I'm lucky enough to have one on the canal-side...
Here it is, standing by my windows, looking back towards my door and the hallway. It's starting to get stuffed to the gills! Eeks!
Here's the view towards the windows.
And this is the view down the canal if I stick my head out the window.Wait a minute. What's the HUGE crane doing there on the opposite side of the canal??
You have *got* to be kidding me...
Yup. They're actually pulling a pickup truck out of the canal!! Good grief. The scuttlebutt was that somebody parked it up the hill a bit (there's a parking lot there, offices, shops and such, it's a mixed-use neighborhood) and forgot to put the parking break on. Not sure if you can even see it, but the chain link fence that lines the bottom of the hill obviously isn't strong enough to stop a pickup truck. LOL!Even more funny was when I poked my head out to take photos, everybody else was poking their heads out too, like a giant game of Celebrity Squares (the building has five stories, 20+ studios on each level).

You have such a nice studio and I belive you had a good laugh when you saw the pic-up truck, I belive the owner wasn´t so happy!
Oh gosh, you're absolutely right, only funny for an onlooker - we were all worried that somebody was *in* there, and very relieved to learn it was just an empty truck... Astonished is probably a better word for the whole experience! :)
Oh - and I should say, I meant the "Funny" in the title of this entry as more the "strange" or "odd" meaning of funny instead of haha funny... (The heads popping out of the windows was the funny part!)
