I posted all of my pics in order. The series from 1 - 4. Then when I went in and gave them titles, the order got screwed up and pic 3 comes before 1 and 2.
I found nothing to reset these except maybe to delete and re-post them which I may do one day. For now they remain. (4 pics below this post)

Nevil lives here.
Suzy and I ran into this in the Bo-Kaap section of Cape Town. The road we are standing on (a bridge) has nice, 3 story houses where big families can live..and right out of their window they can see this. Dillapitated, broken 'aluminum' houses with crumbling walls, zero yards, etc. Alas, this is not what this picture is really about. See the garbage piled in the back. A man we met named Nevil, who works in the house behind me as I took this shot, lives down there. He has no house, but is employed as a general worker in a nice one. And any time they want to they can stand on their balcony and look down at him in his garbage.
Not to give you the wrong idea however...we met the family who lives there as well as Nevil of course. The family was nice to us, and we had a great talk with them. (once they determined that we were not American. "We hate Americans!") This picture is LIFE.
