I just went to the opening of Tom Barker’s Earth Images exhibit at our Dyer Arts Center. The exhibit was up yesterday, and though not officially open, I was browsing it with two colleagues. One of them mentioned that it would have been nice if the photographer had put up signs describing the images. A few minutes later I saw a picture of two old-school VW Bugs and I mentioned how my sister would have liked that picture.

Today I headed down to check out the exhibit again during its official opening and Barker had added the missing notes to the photos by the time I got there. I looked at the VW picture again and I was shocked to see the words “Belchertown, Mass” listed with it. Turns out Barker’s daughter lives in good old B’Town now (as does my sister). Strange.
