local celebrity look-a-like (pt. 3)

(I think (3?), it's been a while since I've done this) but anyway-Ciao! & all the way back from happy Italy is the happy couple & they come baring happy gifts & such & we're all stoked (happy) to see pics of something possibly called the floritina de la riviera los classico, or something of that nature. Come on, that's gotta be an actual place. No?? so before that trip of all trips, we got together, said some words to make it official & all, & I got a chance to meet the groom's brother who we'll simply refer to as mini-me.

Mini-me seems like a supreme dude, I only got to converse slightly with him, he's supposedly headed off to WI to do some serious grind pounding masters situation on the Italian words, culture, etc., but as the picture proves, there's quite the small resemblance (3.5-4.7) on a scale of 1 ta-& then on the serious gave thee all time best-best man speech at said celebration. Totally moved to almost tears & quite possibly could have shed-but a lot of meaningful stuff about family, & especially having an older brother to help you on your first day of 7th grade, etc. but I've been there & it really hit home-beautiful, moving,..but enough with the feelings & such-

sometimes you just gotta sit yourself down outside at the pool & do that thing,.....(note to special fans of this blog: you know as well as I do, I'd never be caught drinking a Miller Lite. Sometimes in art & more specifically photography, you have to immerse yourself in the character you're trying to emulate. totally devoted to my craft of smiling for the camera, & pretending to look like others, I grabbed the first bottle at my disposal, which was disposed of, & smiled!)



dunno. at one point the little flower girl called me Todd, & wouldn't relent. In her little mind, I was him. children are the future.
