Jobe's grandma looms large in his eye

Jobe finds magic in his own hand

One of the two boys who came here tonight found his grandmother's magnifying glass. He saw his own hand as he had never seen it before.

Goofy, two boys and ice cream

Two more boys have joined us for the night… They eat ice cream and watch Goofy on TV.

Compulsive picture taker out on a walk during a pretty time of year

It sure is a pretty time of year here. Pleasant temperatures, and no mosquitoes. The next time we get a good wind, most of this color will sail away.

I know, I said no more pictures until my late afternoon coffee break, but I had to take a walk – so why not? I'm a compulsive picture taker.
