ran into my friend ernie and his wife at the dia de los muertos, uptown last week. they said it was the first one they'd participated in, and i don't think any of their other club members were there, unsure that it would be worth the drive.
they offered me a bottle of water, which i gladly took, as i was overheating about that time, and still hadn't had breakfast.
they took a picture of me, so i took a couple of pictures of them. camera wasn't quite the right setting, and it's not quite sharp as i know that lens can be, but it's ok.
i think they might just have had the best spot on the street, as far as shade goes. probably had shade most of the day, which was quite pleasant on a hot day. being their first time there, they didn't know if pop-ups were allowed, so they lucked out.
i told them their car was glowing, with the light sifting through the tree branches. not sure if i captured it, but there's at least a hint of it here.
to the other couple of people who offered me bottles of water, thank you so much if i refused it—i'd just chugged one right before you asked...
