~o:> In the hood

Posted on July 31, 2010 by K

Just a few images. My long-time neighbor and good, good friend, Jeri.  She keeps chickens and rides a Harley.  And watches over me. Hard core Harley girl. I tell her horses are better. She laughs. Some terrible shots of some … Continue reading →

~o:> what I really do with my time

Posted on July 22, 2010 by K

(Comments finally answered!) Years ago, I went to see Ginger in her ancient gray stone house on Center Street.  Lovely old place.  (I’d lived in the upstairs apartment during grad school, years before it was hers.) The best part of being … Continue reading →
