Edward

I met Edward today when he was having a smoke on the walking mall. He is a Vietnam vet. Blackfeet Tribe member from Browning. Health problems now keep him in Helena close to the veteran's hospital. He's got some miles on and a story or two.

    Poignant! A beautiful portrait! He looks so ancient against the hard background of glass and steel.

    I wish I'd met Edward when we stayed just above Helena in Wolf Crk. - used to have 40 acres up there - loved the area & would have loved to hear some of Edwards stories.
