Today

As I walked my dog down Roland Street a round woman with her bare belly exposed was leaving her apartment building. She carried a black and white striped shoulder bag. Her hair was gathered into twin black buns on top of her head like Mickey Mouse. She said hello, and I said hi. 

Further down the street a man with a big white beard and a barrel shaped belly was walking into Michaud Auto Body. He wore a pink dress shirt and khaki slacks. His slacks were held up by two brown suspenders.

On my walk to the pool I passed the Speedway gas station. I saw an older man with bald head except for a small white ponytail. He wore blue overalls without a shirt, sporting his tan torso. He had only one overall strap fastened.  He was at the pump filling his tank, a gigantic white truck with a double cab.
