Blog # 19 Mr. Mac Expansion

Aniin,

Recently, Mr. Mac had me photograph his store expansion.

His extensive inventory can now be seen in a showroom that is Double the size of the last floor.

He is your Stacy Adams Headquarters for Shoes-Ties-Shirts-Sweaters-Hosiery-Jackets-Jewelery and Acessories.

It is in my opinion, that Mr. Mac has the Largest selection of Dress hats in the Pacific Northwest.

You can pay with Cash or Visa or MasterCard or a convenient Layaway plan.

With new merchandise arriving Weekly, you can find your fit up to size 8x.

Mr. Mac is open Monday thru Saturday from 10 AM to 4 PM and closed on Sunday's.

Hey, let me end this Blog with some Rockin Music by the Commodores. This is a tribute to one of Mr. Mac's Staff as he was the one that told me the name of this song, I had heard it for years but, I did not know who sang it or the title.

This was our first exhibition with music. Performing was Stacy on horn and Clara on harp. Fantastic!! I believe that Carla made the arrangements?

Blog # 16 Vision Quest 2 253

Aaniin,

March 26, 2014 was the opening of my 2^nd showing. This was a group show celebrating the 5^th anniversary of the Collective. The theme was 253, covering pretty much the entire pierce county area.

Most of the images were of the 66^th Annual Golden Gloves held at the Tacoma Armory at 11^th and Yakima. I got some great portraits there like Leo Randolph, the Olympic Gold Medalist and Stan the Man, the reason behind why we have AAA baseball in Tacoma.This Golden Gloves was my first and Stan’s 64^th. Mr. Mac was also at ringside.  My favorite portrait was of River, the girl that won the first jacket.

I had 18 images but, only 12 frames so I will have to rotate the photos.

The evening ended with the Duchess and her Art Bus, filling the gallery to capacity and some very appreciated sales.

For Vision Quest 1, Maiden Voyage, I closed with the Herbie Handcock song  but for this show I close with the Michael Buble` cover of the Nina Simone hit “Feeling Good”.
