1970’s Memorial Day 1972 Stratford Ct.

10.19.2016 by Peter J. Crowley // Leave a Comment

Then and now the waves of change roll in but the breakwater of status quo flattens them with new and improved detergent. These were the early days of spin.

A quiet porch Memorial off the main streets parade route. Belief still had some.

Sikorsky Helicopters a small civil disobedience demonstration. Stop the killing.

Peace for children and people of the world this scout groups message loud then, now unheard.

Walking back to my car she sits on the porch. Sitting on porches a calming time morning, evening, anytime. Put down your personal lobotomy device. Sit breath, wonder, imagine.

My second book filled with images, tales both visual and verbal commentary on five decades of passionate observation. Real, Surreal, Silly, Serious, Loud and Quiet a way of seeing.

Who is Peter see Thurston Talk’s profile.

Not an easy task, I’m picking tomatoes she is running her circles increase in size.

dsc_2711-sept-24-2016 Saturday we went to the Theater to see “Piggie and Elephant we’re in a play”.  One of her teachers was in the play. We arrive at the theater as is the usual action Inara picks our seat. In the front roll a friend from school sits. A brief glance at Mom and me “I’m sitting here” mom and I head to the back. Her circle grows.

Visiting last night filling me in on the days events at school. A cut on her chin “Oh my god grandpa we were running and Peter wasn’t looking and bonked into me I fell and hit the curb proud of her little battle scare. But “Oh my god” where did that come from? A couple white pumpkins a flashlight walk she wants to go to see the Mandala painted in the street. It is late and daddy will be here soon. She tells me we should go watch the silly Humming Birds try and drink the nectar from the painted flower we laugh picturing birds trying to lick the flowers. Did I say laughter?

Harry Callahan’s door Providence 1981. A friend lived next door meeting her for lunch one day she pointed out who’s door this is while I was composing this image. 

mass-diner-july-1984Diner in Massachusetts 1984 it says on the slide. Not sure as I wander deeper into the archives I may be sure. Anyone recognize this diner? The mind thinks Middletown Ct.

attleboro-may-1980Granny’s Attleboro Massachusetts May 1980. I stopped the car got out waved to the guy for consent. It was a raw day for May more like March.
