I swear the picture of the two little old ladies is a classic photo that you should never lose. It really reminded me of the Shag painting: The Last Days of Kahiki. Shag added the words to this painting: "A tiki bar is destroyed to make room for a drug-store. Somewhere in the distance a girl weeps softly. Frogs rain from the sky, and the sun is darkened." I feel like that girl Shag writes about is somehow inside those two gray haired ladies. I wish I was there to see it in person, but at the same time I'm glad I missed it. Thanks for the words and pictures.
