Possibly she grew up in the same part of Baltimore as my parents, Forrest Park High School area (?), she and her husband George were my godparents. Her passing away in 2010 was a […]

Not only are the reaction shots brilliant., but the whistler’s facial contortions are priceless.

That’s about half the descriptors in the title for a writeup on my latest WordPress/Syndication Hub site that Does Not Act Like a Blog- the Covering the Coverage site, one of the 24 courses that are part of Gardner Campbell et al’s Great VCU Race Bike Book project.
