Looking back, I feel as though there was a flaw in choosing the Third Ward as a starting point for my first drift: it was too familiar a space. I live there one half of the time, and am fairly familiar with the area. This immediately would imply a bias, at least to me, in how I see the third ward - or, even, how I don't see it.
Therefore, for Drift 2, I will begin my derive at the corner of Jean Nicolet Rd. and W. Fairfield Court, near Nicolet High School. Given the general tendancy for Milwaukee's suburban children to be kept away from the other side of the highway, this is an area that is almost totally foreign to me - an odd thing, I feel. I live, relatively speaking, close to it; why should I not be familiar with the area?
