Hillbilly and other stories

Wow I haven't posted for ages blah blah.

Anyway as many of you know Ive just got back from america from staying with unzercharlie <3

Just thought i'd post this weird story that happened while i was over there even though i've already told it to quite a few people. We were in downtown lexington, taking photographs. We found ourselves under this bridge, next to a fairly busy street opposite the bus station. Unz was resting his camera on a concrete fence to take long exposures, and i spotted a guy coming over from the bus station towards us. I pointed him out to unz, feeling a bit nervous, and he was like "oh don't worry, he wont bother us".

But the guy came right up, and told us he had some advice for us. He said god told him to tell us this advice. Then he started telling us that he was a god fearing man, and his rambling went on from there, and we all forgot abou the advice, which he never told us. He went on to say that his name was Hillbilly, he's a professional hitchhiker, he has a library card in every place he's ever been, and he has a book coming out february 15th. (He urged us to remember his name so that we could check for the book.)

Then he said "alright, I'm not gonna lie to you. I need five dollars for some liquor" So unz gave him some change and said it'd get him started, and then hillbilly said we could take his picture. So he pulls out this harmonica and starts to play and I took a couple of shots.

The first one is better. The second one is only included cause it looks like tom waits. I wish i'd asked him to show us all his library cards and taken a picture of that (assuming it wasn't in his head)

Then we pretty much said goodbye. Later on we were sitting in a park, and we saw him again and he gave us his email address. He also said that he gave the change to a girl he saw who needed it, and that he knew it'd come back to him.

Oh also, we saw this pinned to a poster box type thing which was pretty awesome

I stopped to take pictures of the ripped posters and stuff (<3 dilapidation) and spotted it. Course we didn't take it, but I later realised i wish i'd added a dollar cause it would be awesome if the person who left it there went back to check if it'd gone... and instead, there was an extra dollar.

Oh and the ART.

So me and unz went to this restaurant where they have paper table cloths and give you crayons so you can draw on the table while you wait for your meal. So we started drawing and just kinda carried on, until we'd filled a whole heap of the table. It was mostly abstract stuff, shapes and things and both our names drawn cooly.

People stopped by the table to tell us it was cool : )

The waitress said we should take it with us, but we decided to be pretentious artists, so we just wrote ART in huge letters, and drew arrows pointing at it and left it there.

Then, when we left, we went to buy 96 regular crayons, 8 large crayons, about 30 sharpies all in different colours... and a ninety foot roll of paper.

We have about 15ft done so far and a bunch of people have joined in. It'll be a while before i get to work on it again, but we're sure as hell gonna get the whole 90feet done and then we'll be famous.

Here's just a couple of sections of it, there's more that i dont have photos of :/
