Forty one years ago I lived a few block from here, 10 years ago and the prior 10 or so years I worked at the SCSU Theater Dept. In June I was back as a visitor. As I sit at the keyboard I remember the New Haven chapter of my life. My daughter was born there, now she is a mommy too and I’m a very happy grandpa. A rich man in the art of seeing documenting life 1/250th of a second and an 8×10 traveling back creates many stories. Some I’ll tell when the retrospect is complete, some here teasers as a metaphor for the world around me a documentary self portrait. Now at 2 pm I’m off to the hot sun and a cool friend one who has lived the metaphor with me for 40 plus years. peace pjc
