Seeking a Warm Place on City’s Coldest Night

On Januaray 22, temperatures in Pennsylvania were predicted to plumet down to 4 degrees the coldest day this Winter. Mr. Sanders accompanied with his partner Ms. Washington found a warm place to stay for the night at the Penn station. Even thought shelters loosen their roles on night like these some homeless prefer to make their own arrangments.
Around 11:30 p.m., several of the homeless people staying the night in Penn Station burst into an impromptu dance session in front of a man banging on pots, pans and five-gallon plastic drums. As commuters watched, a woman who identified herself only as Sophie swayed with two men. “Yes, I’m partying, I’m enjoying my life,” Sophie said as she sipped a beer.
What suprises me is that even though their homeless they still are able to enjoy their lives they are living and make the best of their situation.
