nine days to go
// That jeep was sitting across the street from the restaurant where I had my birthday lunch. I was this close to hopping in it and driving straight to The LPV (when I say, ‘this close’, you have to picture me holding my thumb and forefinger barely a centimeter apart with my eyes all squinty……

behind the photos II
