Esoteric stuff - while I'm pondering how to show others

My trip is weird. I'm in the hinterland of the glory of New England spring - in lots of locations where regular, trained folk take care of people with developmental problems of all kinds and all kind of severity. The situations are either facilities with many buildings / schools / programs - or homes where there are community living arrangements. Some are young, some are all ages, some are at death's door.

I am maybe going to make a thread of some of them showing me what they are doing just showing their hands. Later.
Now I'm in a Roadway Inn too tired to think, we still have 5 days of touring left and it's strenuous.

These are a few shots from the periphery for the heck of it...
A back alley in Great Barrington, Mass. Steps and walkway. I would NEVER be on them.


In a home I saw this poster of Johnny Cash


The folks you can spy in the top had a meeting I did not need to be in, so I laid down in the "tulips" and took a nap


One of the many looms I've seen


Pigtails

Spring in New England ain't so bad, although I am in the "cold spot" of the Northeast and my trees are just now starting to leaf out...

You've captured (almost) the best part of the pigs and the loom is quite captivating (always wished I had been able to use one)
