Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for February 07, 2020

Yes, Larry is easily entertained.

On Ballard Street the breezes blow, the sparklers spark—and there ya go! What more could you want?

Larry has been this way since last July 4th when the large Devils Boom went off prematurely.

That’s our Larry, not bothering anyone, easily pleased. So unusual on Ballard Street.

A box of sparklers can go a long way

Especially when you do that dark roast/psilocybin blend.

I’m totally in Larry’s camp.

“Oooh… look, a sparkler!”

At last years Ballard Park Memorial Day Picnic and Parade, I won the trophy for “Most Easily Amused.”

Sure beats being bored.

Seems on Ballard St, most are deficient in common sense……

Good for you, Larry. Light another one. No, I mean the sparklers.

At least Larry is fully clothed.

Twinkle, twinkle little spark

How I wonder what you arc

Up above my chair so high

I think an ember got in my eye…

Until.. a spark lands in his crotch.

Ballard St: where there is a Zen monastery next door to a home for the harmless deranged, and no fence between them!

Assuming it is a beautiful day; that would work for me.

He once tried bundling a bunch of them, but it was overwhelming. There’s only so much whelming he can take.

Looking directly at it is not good for the eyes, especially for an extended period of time.

Larry is happy. Be more like Larry!

Larry has a cleft chin like Kirk Douglas, R.I.P., but there the resemblance ends.
