At lunch today nine of us got together to see a good friend and co-worker off, back to his home in another state. It’s a close-knit group, and paths will cross again and again…


Today at lunch.

I’ve always courted obsession. The trick, I think, is finding a way to make your obsessions pay the mortgage, hopefully. Anyway, the older gentleman in center frame was wearing a charcoal-gray suit and bright red socks. It’s impossible not to love that. I found my blue ball point and the back of the church bulletin. Sitting on the other side of my wife was my son, also drawing. She rolled her eyes and shook her head. Obsession passed on to another generation.


This is one of our favorite lunch places.
