The Cane

I believe some of the Ladies of Dark Shadows were up next to entertain or answer questions, but I needed a break. On the way to the room I met up with Nancy, heading the same way with Jonathan's cane. Seeing opportunity, I asked to borrow it. After all, she knew where I lived. So like a runner, I had the Stick.

After a few twirls and swaggers and mock beatings,

I did what anyone would do with a stick. Took its portrait. This is Jonathan's wolf's head cane.

It's either lying against his photo album cover

or my portfolio...at any rate a nice textured basic black there.

Yes, I was very amused with the irony

of having this much fun over a stick. You get your kicks where you can.

I'm an artist. I have a thing for sticks.

We all got into it and snapped pictures of each other

with the cane. I know there's a shot of Nancy with it

and I know I took Malia's, but apparently neither

with my camera. Phoo. I did get Kristi... And Kristi got me.
