Blum love

Three of the fourth-session grumpy old men. Classic FV lifers. From left to right: Mark Gottdenker, Bud Cox, Eric Blum. Blum, who usually volunteers here an entire month (his year's vacation) is here just these two weeks. He's had a hard go of it lately but is here, here, here and already, I can tell, feels better. It's the air. It's the fact of a place turned over to enable children's happiness and health. It's the comradeship of the grumpy old men. It's the love he receives (from me, for one thing - I who really do love him). Well, enough gushing. Blum's here. 'Nuf said for now.
