Stopped by Momma’s restaurant, new our new home, for another portrait of Louise Fairbanks, owner of Momma’s bar and family restaurant. Got a shot of the light framing her as she talked to a customer at the barn, finishing his hamburger. This is a face I am drawn to photograph, etched with character and strength. Waiting for Ken Norman to come and get the donkeys. Wild day, I suspect it will end at Momma’s for a dinner celebration. We hope to get a bedroom set up in the new house, but it is raining. We’ll see.
