Where I Occupied Space

The very middle of the photo and on the 3rd floor. My office for many years.
Wash Ave. 80s.

My life has been graced with Golden's and Golden Mixes.
Alex was a Golden/Collie who was rabidly protective of me. He had a long career of biting men.
He especially disliked anyone who raised their hand over their head as if to strike. Even a contractor raising a hammer. Alex was a rescue so it's likely he came from a place where he was beaten. Perhaps by a man raised his hand over his head.
Alex was my body guard.
Alex had a few meetings with animal control where luckily, he was careless with his charm and appraised as harmless.

Happy B-Day to My Mom

Mom, where ever you are, I must tell you what happened yesterday on your birthday.
I was chatting with a 3 year old on the sidewalk. I dropped to tie her shoe. She kissed me on the head, shook my hand, and offered me a quarter.
I took the quarter and bought some roses for you.
Hopefully you're hanging out with Prince.
