during the return voyage an adolescent boy stood against the rail just in front of the orange peel. i noticed that he noticed the peel. he proceeded to glance furtively around and then he tried to kick the peel off the ferry to the water below. he wasn’t sucsessful, instead the peel fell onto the floor of the ferry. he tried again to kick the peel overboard, but the peel got stuck on the edge of the lip. he gave up and walked away. the peel lay on the ground looking flattened and pathetic. jack suggested i take a picture, but i declined thinking i would make myself too conspicuous to the other passengers who would immediately know it was i who had left the orange peel there and they would rise up against me for having the audacity of leaving such garbage laying around.
