My pals at silverorange had a great time with Sloan on the weekend in Toronto all arranged by Chip. I saw this picture in green this morning and was pretty envious but watching a lunar eclipse with my kids was a close second for a weekend night.
Chip is in the back left not on skateboard
The picture reminded me of other group photos in my life, often from that same early- mid-twenties age, people who are now professionals in distant cities or countries or lost to contact. The sometimes well haired Ian maintains the art well. Here is one of mine from 1987 at the Truro Ponderosa Steakhouse - as opposed to the Truro Ponderosa beverage room.

Haimy is in Japan, Maddy in California, a BC dentist, two Ontario doctors, a cardiac nurse, a municipal clerk, a hospital pharmacist, three I have know idea, me and Smed. Grouping is good.

Thinking about the art of the group photo reminded me of Thaddeus Holowina and his use of an old group portrait camera as a landscape camera or for a book of portaits by him I saw once of people with their cars. He works at Mount A where my brothers went for undergrad.

At the risk of sounding irreverent about your old pics - ya look like you have to pee in the bottom shot.

As I suspect I had a very fluid enriched previous 48 hours, you may well be right. That is, after all, only about 40 hours after this...
