walking the alley

walked downtown to meet a friend for lunch today --- quite the scenery going and coming, beginning with the middle-aged, african american woman, morbidly obese, in halter top and short shorts, carrying a white 5-gallon bucket full of what looked like magazines, walking slowly down the center line of peachtree street --- i could not bring myself to take a photograph ---- there are a lot of sad people in this world

dog and i like the alleys in midtown, this one especially which is almost like a little country lane ---
