Free Spirits

I saw Frank and Charlie standing on a street corner by Walmart and immediately rushed home and grabbed my camera. I stalked them through the parking lot until they sat down on the benches outside the store. I was pretty hesitant to approach them but after talking to them for awhile I was really glad I did.

Charley (left) and Frank sit outside with Jasper.

Charley had gotten in a fight with someone twice his size and 10 years his junior. "I'm a little bulldog," Charley said. "If they want to tangle with me I'll tangle with them."

Jasper was really shy to everyone except Frank and Charley.

Jasper tongue. =]

I learned a valuable lesson this afternoon and that was to never assume people are homeless just because they appear to be...homeless.
