I took it

This morning, I got up waaayyyy too early to participate in the Eagle's "Takin' It to the Streets" fundraiser for United Way.

Volunteers must agree to arrive at 6:30 a.m. then dart out into pre-dawn traffic to sell papers. I was at Main and Market, which is a surprisingly dead corner, as it turns out.


One bright spot from the morning -- a lady just happened to show up with a baby pug puppy. His name was Jackson. Awwwwwwww.

Thanks to fellow street takin' it toers Stacey Jenkins Deanna Talbott for their photo work.

    Our corner was dead too. It is usually pretty busy. Not a lot of givers out there yesterday. Although I did get a few hoots and hollars from passing construction workers. Keep it comin boys I need all the ego boosting I can get. ;o)
