Charlie and MOQUI


You probably wouldn't be able to guess where Charlie is, but he's at the Grand Canyon. Charlie is at the Moqui Lodge. The lodge was demolished in 2005. This photo was taken in May, 1986. I'm sure Charlie had nothing to do with its demise.

CHECK Charlie


Charlie's standing so this might mean he's on the move again. He could be...checking out.

I'm betting nobody believed I actually have a box of photos of a man standing or sitting.

Charlie OVEREXPOSED


I don't think Charlie would like the sort of people his site has been keeping company with. He, and I, are hoping they'll leave him alone. He doesn't have a lot of friends, but with friends like those....

He's glad to be back and once again on the go.

Sharing a CUP OF JOE WITH CHARLIE


It's Sunday. Charlie would be happy to just sit and chat over a cup of coffee. Or sit and chat about the cup of coffee.
