So long dear friend…


2017 photo100 – #14

I recently bid adieu to my 1997 Toyota 4Runner. I bought it new and in the interceding years drove the equivalent of 7.5 times around the Earth. In spite of that the chassis and mechanical systems are in good shape, however, the frame… not so much. Large sections of the frame have succumb to rust.

I have passed it along to a friend who is need of transportation and is able to repair the damage.

We’ve been through a lot together in these past 20 years; letting go of it has been a somewhat emotional experience. I bid you farewell and Godspeed my old friend.

Rock On!

This shot is from my first-ever stadium rock show, Boston, in 1979. The film stock was Illford HP5 ‘pushed’ beyond any resonable (at the time) speed of 3200 ISO. I remember not being able to hear too well for a few days and hearing some guy called ‘Sammy Haggar’ as the openning act.

This train yard was located in the lower Garden District of New Orleans in the mid/late ’70s. It is an empty lot now according to Google Earth. The popular tourist destination “Mardi Gras World” now stands just off to the left of this image.

Glazer Steel, seen on the right side of this image, was sold to Triple-S Steel Supply in 1998 but retained the name.
