I counted eleven GBH riding the Hudson line from Ossining south to Spuyten Duyval this morning. I believe that's a high count. Is there perhaps not some jingoistic irony in the fact that one presidential candidate wants to "make America Great (again)" and repeatedly trumps the slogan "America First", while the restaurant owned by Ahmad Khan Rahami's family is named "First American Fried Chicken". "Something will have gone out of us as a people if we ever let the remaining wilderness be destroyed ... We simply need that wild country available to us, even if we never do more than drive to its edge and look in." ― Wallace Stegner<https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/157779.Wallace_Stegner>, The Sound of Mountain Water<https://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/16869>
