Kelly At Ease

Kelly At Ease

We had dinner with Ed and Carol Gulley at the Bog last night, Kelly was running the show, it was quiet. By the time our food came there were only two customers sitting at tables, no one at the bar. This is unusual for the Bog, and I grabbed my camera, I try to get photos of Kelly in her environment, and I loved all of the clutter around her.

Kelly is always graceful, always steady, she seems immune to drama and trouble, she just does her best and her best is always fine. I did like this shot of her at ease though, before she picked up her cloth and wiped down the barn, or brought a check out or served a drink or cleared a table.

Kelly said I was welcome to have dinner at the Bog while Maria was away, perhaps I can have my own table, be a regular, like in the movie Casablanca. I said I might sit on the bar and get drunk, and Kelly promised to stop serving me when it got bad and drive me home if necessary. Party time.
