little by little

our past disappears.

I remember feeling sad when on a return visit to Kent State University I saw my dorm -- Stopher Hall -- a pile of rubble. more recently Jerry's Diner disappeard. now word arrives of the coming demolition of the Robin Hood.

when I began studies at Kent this was a charming upscale restaurant where I'd brunch when my parents came to visit. years later it turnd into a bar that servd mean New England ice teas.

in 1986 I took this picture of Joe Walsh in the Homecoming parade. the building behind his Cadillac is the Robin Hood.
