Cleveland


After the cultural gathering near Kirtland, 
we had a community dinner in Cleveland. 


We met in a house that was once an old store. 


Friends bring love and laughter.


Even though poverty is a constant companion in this neighborhood. 


Hundred year old store fronts line the streets. 


A tattoo parlor across the street...


But friends are an oasis of hope...


A homegrown church on the street corner. 

Iglesia Roca de Refugio
"Rock of Refuge Church"

When I took this picture, 
I heard someone
tuning an electric guitar. 
I wish I had more time 
to visit their worship service.


A flowering tree covered with snow. 
Did he say it was a tulip poplar?
