Just sitting around smoking weed

Scott Walker August 11, 2018

On the streets in Canada he was smoking his weed, but then again... he knows what he is doing because as you can see his sign shows that he is a doctor.

His hat read, “Police Box.” The Police Box is a public callbox to call police or for members of the police department to use to contact their headquarters. They were used between the late 1890's up until the 1920's in both America and in the UK. It was also used as a miniature police office for officers to fill out reports in.

In case you are curious, Canada was the second nation in the world to legalize marijuana. It became legal under "The Cannabis Act."

Larry the Hitchhiker

Scott Walker April 25, 2017

I don't always have my camera with me, but the days I don't are the days that interesting things occur. That's why I at least have my phone. 

This afternoon Marty Luffman and I headed to Nashville to hand out about 10 or 15 tents to those who lost theirs in the recent flooding. While passing through LaVergne we saw a man hitchhiking down Murfreesboro Road. So of course we stopped to offer him a ride. 

Larry couldn't get into my truck because it too high for his frail 68 year old body. So, I did what anyone would do. I literally picked up Larry the hitchhiker and put him in the back seat. 

As we started to drive towards Nashville I noticed the tears running down his sun weathered face. I asked what was wrong and he quietly whispered, "Everything." 

Marty and I took Larry with us to multiple homeless encampments so that he could have the pleasure of being a part of the positiveness. At each stop he would roll down his window never saying a word. Homeless persons receiving a tent would then thank Larry, which was awesome to see a slight smile as his words were few and far in between.

Later, we took Larry to McDonalds in the area of Gallatin Pike where he needed to be... With a BigMac in hand he pointed at an apartment complex behind McDonalds and uttered the words, "That's where I have to be."
