#6: Arizona Dream
Above image from HAD’s “I SAVED THIS POSTCARD TO SEND TO MY GRANDMA” by Hattie Jean Hayes.
The sign is taped to a post and weathered and tattered as it is, it would be easy to believe that it has been there for weeks. But this post is one that Gord walks past several times a day, every day, and he never saw the sign before now. Lost Lovebird, says the sign. Please Call.
