Chuck

CWTIII January 1
CWTIII used to bring a taste of Suffolk Virginia to the Woolen Mills January first. He’d make the obligatory Hoppin’ John, not my favorite. But then there were oysters and ham biscuits, delicious. Chuck was my neighbor for 34 years. All good years. Miss him everyday.

I stumbled off the track to success in 1968, started chasing shadows that summer. Since then, In addition to farm-laborer and newspaper photographer my occupational incarnations include dishwasher, janitor, retail photo clerk, plumber, HVAC repairman, auto mechanic, CAT scan technologist, computer worker and politico (whatever it takes to buy a camera.) I am on the road to understanding black and white photography.
