Just a fun photo of Bob, winding down before he
heads to work at a downtown restaurant.
Meet Colleen, another of the homeless persons I've met in my time downtown.
This is Dan, last I heard he was living at the Drop In Centre,
and he loves his guitar!
Dennis, a few months after I took this photo he
had some heart trouble and was hospitalized, the
next time I saw him he was looking worse for
wear, but at least still alive...
My friend Max, who works downtown, helping homeless people network to find the help they need.
Scott Alderson (street poet), a published poet
who writes poems about the downtown streets
and occasionally busks along Stephen Avenue.
Todder & Rikki, a couple of young people who were just passing through Calgary
on the way to Edmonton...
