Shore Road in Brooklyn

Shore Road in Brooklyn is a very romantic and everyone I know whose walked on there on their first date has gotten married.  Last night a friend had a first date that ended on Shore Road so hopefully I will update in a few months and tell ya her good news.

 Our Shore Road story:

 Lee and I went to lunch at Cappuccino Café on 3^rd Avenue in Brooklyn. After some good conversation and lunch, we decided to take a walk on Shore Road. We walked to the end where Toy R Us is located and then walked back. As we walked back, Lee saw a cat on the Belt Parkway which runs parallel to Shore Road. He waited for the traffic to ease up and then crossed the highway to the divider. Lee picked up the scared, grey-striped kitty and carefully crossed back. Lee carried the small cat in his jacket because it was windy on Shore Road that day. We walked a little more than a mile to get to the pier and Lee took the cat out of his windbreaker. People gathered around us to see the cat and offer it food and water. We explained to them that we found the cat on the highway. A little girl and her Mom offered to take the cat home.

 Friends of ours joked that Lee called Rent A Cat before our date and had the cat placed on the highway so he could save it.

 A month after we started dating, I met Lee at his apartment in Park Slope before we were heading out to the city. I was standing in his kitchen and there was a large cat standing on the fire escape looking in at me. I called Lee to the kitchen and said, “Why didn’t you tell me you had a cat?”  He saw the cat looking in and laughed because he couldn’t figure out how the cat got up to his third floor apartment. He climbed down the fire escape and put the cat back into the yard.

 Friends joked that Lee didn’t pay his Rent A Cat bill and this cat was coming to claim it.

Hugs,
marlene
