More Notes From the Refrigerator Door 
The magic of the camera…these frozen moments in time…sign posts of a life lived by marching to no one else’s drum. Wonderful and touching.

Though I only knew him as “Country Joe” from one of my shaving forums and meeting him at Collingwood Flea Market, I was shocked and saddened to hear today from a vendor at Collingwood that he had passed. He was a very nice man, and he was always very fair and generous with me. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to look at my shelf of Old Spice mugs/bottles again,in addition to the numerous razors/razor blades I acquired from him, and not think about him. I’m so sorry for your loss.
