Meet Lawrence and Herbert
They’re from Martinsville, VA.
They apologized for “being in the way” and tried to move when I was taking some pictures the other day. I told them, you are the picture if you don’t mind of course! They happily participated and we chatted for a bit.
It’s always a treat to talk to some impeccably wrinkled folks who’ve been around for a while and have good stories. If you click on the picture you can see that Lawrence’s hat says- Life is simple; eat, sleep, fish. How perfect.
Hope you enjoyed the rest of your day Lawrence and Herbert. So nice to meet you.
(Readers,
You’ll see an anonymous comment below just sent to me. I only think it’s fair to publish all comments, not just the happy dappy frappy stuff, as being real and truthful is what I want Blue Lollipop Road to be. Saying that, this commenter happened to be “disturbed” that this photo showed:
1.) A guy on oxygen and still smoking.
2.) That a WII tournament was happening Monday at 6pm.
Dear Anonymous,
Thank you for commenting, I love commenters and am happy to receive the good and the bad anytime!
As for #1 disturbance to you, I completely agree, but also think it’s an eye-opening view of how people are so different from each other in the decisions they make. #2? Really? I am not a big WII gal myself, but I say play on WII-ers! Rock it out!)
Thanks again Anonymous, keep them coming!

1. Oxygen and still smoking (just seems wrong on so many levels)
2. The sign in the background… WII Tournament Monday at 6pm.

Second – while not a big fan of smoking, I suppose there’s something to be said for man who sticks to his guns. Ill advised? Absolutely! But in a skewed way, I can’t help but respect a man so determined to do what makes him happy. That said, I eagerly await the day my wife kicks the habit! 😛
