A Picture Of Me

I made the fortuitous mistake of loaning my little digital camera to one of the street kids while we were hanging out watching the high stakes marble games in a vacant lot. He took a bunch of pictures that I would never have gotten, owing to the fact that he seemed know everybody within a 2 mile radius. Eventually he burned up my battery, but not before he'd filled the card with interesting shots. Along with everything else he took, he had two pictures of me and since I've had several requests I am including it here. That's me on any given day when I'm on the road: backpack, camera over my shoulder, dark colored clothing (the better for blending in), goofy grin...
