Jenny’s early 20th century home is quaint and comfortable and rich in character. The second-floor room has two windows, which provide plenty of light. In one window, there is a double fan, which keeps the room pleasantly cooled. The single shared bathroom is located upstairs across the hall from the bedrooms. Her property covers two lots, one of which serves as an expansive food garden bordered by funky and fun bicycle art and an old neon sign. Jenny is an amiable host, who is equally conscientious in her ecological vigilance, be it in the home or gardening or commuting to work on one of her many bikes. Yes, bikes are the theme here… and then some— she works at a bike shop. The surrounding neighborhood this second week in July was still lively with occasional leftover fireworks, and given that this is a central location in the city, stay alert and engaged to its rhythms.
