Photo Shoot

the Face of Everyman was once again offering baby pictures to the guests at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa.  This youngster was a good subject.  She knew that when Mom said “Freeze”, she meant freeze.  The venerable sage was pleased when Mom ordered reprints.IMG_0364 (2)

Formerly . . .

IMG_0090Ms Dew Drop was aghast with wonder.  This place in no way resembled the Belle Epoque style of the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa in the brochure.  The court yard was choked with grass and the rooms smelled musty.  the Face of Everyman nearly bit his tongue in an effort to not apologize.  Apparently Landscaping was not an essential service in Phase Two.

Years later DNA evidence cleared Rocky of all wrong doing but not before he had become a legend in the yard.  His volley ball skills were unbelievable.  His release was expedited by the Bureau of Prisons in time to make the forth coming Olympics.IMG_0595

Brief population explosions at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa forced the Face of Everyman to open the long shuttered East wing.  Things hadn’t been this busy since the tumultuous days of the Clinton administration.IMG_0524 (2)

“The Grind”

Skateboarding was becoming the new skill set at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa.  Bucky was competing under a pseudonym so his parents wouldn’t find out.  the Face of Everyman hoped to sponsor this keen competitor in trials leading to the World Cup.IMG_0522 (2)

Portraits

The Time-Life© photo team showed unexpectedly and offered free family photos to registered guests at the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa.  the Face of Everyman encouraged folks to participate.  The anxiously awaited magazine story was a crushing disappointment.  Captions twisted the flavor of living the good life on the Pacific Flyway to one of huddled masses on lock down.

Rorschach

A new fad began in the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. Songbirds would flash their underbellies at the Face of Everyman. He would then interpret the ink blot image presented. He had spent time studying with Hermann Rorschach in Switzerland over a hundred years ago. It seems like just yesterday to the venerable sage.

Guinness World Record

Carstairs had applied to Guinness World Records to challenge the speed record held by the Hummingbirds. The application was deemed bold enough for a trials team to book into the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. Lights, camera, action. the Face of Everyman beamed with pleasure as Carstairs sped thru the measured course on his first run. This was epic!

Asylum

Posted on by torkel2020
With the lock down still in place; household pets escaped the bedlam induced by too many family members home at once. This big feline begged for asylum, at least till the next full moon. the Face of Everyman had to deny the request. The Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa was booked solid. Social distancing was a huge problem. He/she could reapply in thirty days.

Attack

Posted on by torkel2020
The upheaval felt like a magnitude 7.7 on the Richter scale; a first for the Foggy Bottoms Resort and Spa. The savage beast, tired of trolling, tore the Face of Everyman from his moorings in search of Crawdads or other morsels. Too deep in sleep, the venerable sage was unable to call on his special powers to ward off this attack. Dawn found him upside down and sputtering in the shallow water of the Kiddies pool.
