| Back in San Diego we had to hike back from the train station. We ended taking a detour that involved jumping a few fences and cutting around the ballpark. Then on the ground there were these black shoes. Tell me he wasn't drunk. He put them on and started to dance around. Remember for the record. I don't drink or do drugs I just photograph those that do... | ![]() |
