Stunning...Breathtaking...in your natural beauty. I like this photo a lot! Good thing I'm seated(weak knee'd). So you...being you. Writing in your journal? in the back of the bus.
I had to say it. Love always.

Natural you remind me of Jackie Roy a french Canadian I went out with from New Hampshire. She was an English major at the University of New Hampshire.

where are you going? who took the pic? and that lone T on the wall beside you...

the 'T'... hadn't noticed that. Where were you going? The Lone 'T'... and were you wearing amber patchouli oil... you look like you may have been.

You look so cool! I think I still have a few dresses like that and I do still wear patchouli. Did you save the diary? (A great start for your book.)

So pretty Lucy - gorgeous really.

The "journal" was my address book and I still have it somewhere (we should reshoot this). You were hard to photograph so I told you to put your address and phone number in the book and then called for you to look up. The bunch of fabric in your lap was your head cover, I believe. It wasn't patchouli, it was ylang ylang ;-)

There’s no brilliance like beauty out there
No knowledge as wise as the heart, we all need a reason to care
We need to dance with life, and leave a brilliant light, leave a brilliant light, leave a brilliant light .. behind

Lucy,
Sometimes you remind me of Forrest Gump in that you have such a variety of notable life experiences.

What's next.... "My life as a shrimp boat captain"?

;)

...but if you want to leave, take good care
hope you make a lot of "nice friends" out there
but just remember there's a lot of bad and beware, ware
Oh baby, baby it's a Wild World
it's hard to get just upon a smile
Oh baby, baby it's a Wild World
and I'll always remember you like a child girllll

Pretty damn hot for sure, and your life certainly has been like a box of chocolates.

Run Lucy, Run...you can BEAT "them" all.

Good 'ol Forrest Gump... sorry to maybe be a downer here, but this brings to mind a memory for me. Actually, this morning another one hit me like a ton of bricks. After my Mothers stroke she was never able to walk on her own again. In comforting her those last two weeks before she had to go one of the things that I told her was that she would be able to walk again... she looked at me and said that she was going to run and run and never stop, just like Forrest Gump. I hope you're running Mom! :=)

I have seen Lucy recently and she looks exactly like this. She truly has not aged. More importanly, she is just as stunning "inside" as "out" - principled, honest, giving. I regret that our paths do not cross but am grateful for having met this unusually gifted woman. Thanksgiving blessings to all who read this and take note of all that surrounds you, as life changes on a dime and you never know who you may be with for the final time.

Joanne, I love your Mom's positive spirit. You keep running too!

Nov 22, 2007 at 6:38 AM | Unregistered CommenterChris

L.F.F.--I have seen Lucy recently too--and while I agree with most of your post, I do think she has done a little something to her hair. Can't quite put my finger on it though.

Wow, such a knockout! I love the post-flower child look. Not down with patchouli, but I loved China Rain (er..in 1998, but still).

I worked at the ‘Eye’ and I remember you. Big Ben and Ricky were the main Bouncers. Al was one of the bartenders (smacked a Hell’s Angel in the back with a pick axe handle after they brought Elaine back form an extended ‘ride.’ It started a brawl at closing time when they brought her back…I had my doubts I’d make it out of that one. They were in town to cheer up a friend who was on trial for something in Boston Federal Court. They came in around 1 PM and drank all day long...stayed 'til cclosing. I remember you and your famous bottle of Ivory dishwashing soap…we caught a bum in a trenchcoat in the backroom, wearing a pair of panties on his head, his black, kinky hair poking out the leg holes…when we threw him out he was carrying a brown paper shopping bag with handles that had various g-strings, shoes, bras, etc., in it. We all had a big laugh over that. "Hey that's mine, cried one of the girls," and then another...There wasn’t much laughing the night a hooker and her pimp chased me into the bar. She had solicited me, I inulsted her, she got nasty, I knocked her out, then the pimp tried to grab me, she got up, and they both chased me down the alley into the Back room where Rocco was tending bar. Big mistake.I ran between Ben and Ricky, “Get ‘em, they’re right behind me…” They laughed until they saw someone really was behind me. Pandemonium ensued…They got grabbed and beat up pretty bad. I dated Heidi, the waitress with long hair, and one of the dancers (Can’t remember her name – really cute - broke out in hives every now and then – nervous from dancing) for a while. I worked there for about 4-5 months…couldn’t take it any longer than that. Glad to see you made it. Sorry for your heartache. I am writing a book and a screenplay – the ‘Zone’ material will be part of it (small part)…that part mostly centered around the night Whitey Bulger came and introduced himself…
