I would have taken a lot more pictures
after this one, but I left my camera someplace and forgot where. It
took me hours to find it again.
Somewhere in there I asked a woman if I
could take her picture. She said "No. I'm playing hooky from being a
teacher right now, and I don't want my students to know where I am."
Then after a pause she said "the two scariest words in the English
language are 'Miss [HerLastNameHere]'." She spoke those last two words
in the tones of a whining student.
I found a small shade puddle at the end
of a semi trailer that happened to be parked next to Nexus 9 on the
Esplenade. It was hot enough that offering people a minute in the
shade to hear a speech was a good deal for many. The main problem with
the place and time was that my camera was blinded by the light.
Cheryl came out and helped me push
stickers for a while. Having her there definately helped me pull over
couples.
