Sketchy

There's a sketchy part of town off Brunswick St. that has scrap metal piled high and dirt all over the place. If you drive into downtown from the east side, you can't miss the eyesore, which happens to be close to the air force building that is in need of repair. This area is, of course, just off the railroad tracks, where several people are known to walk alone at night. As if that weren't sketchy enough, carnival rides and booths recently started being erected in the parking lot by the air force building, with the scrap metal pile in the background. Driving through there at dusk earlier this week, I couldn't help but take a second glance to see if any "carnies" would peek out from behind the ferris wheel or tilt-a-whirl.

Carnies - Thoses are almost Carnies, you haven't seen carnies until you've been to Truro X - the Exhibition.. jsut in case you weren't aware.
