He Said: ‘Help Me, I’m Going To Jump’

 (The Spokesman-Review)

At A Family Runs Through It, Idaho Dad takes us on a photographic tour of the Kroc Center, which is not three weeks from opening, off Ramsey Road, here .

The Walk Home: I’m always aware of people when I’m walking. I try to assess them and make up a story about them. This one though was different. He was older than me, wearing a plaid shirt and jeans. My first thought was, where’s his coat – it’s going to rain and it’s cold still for early April. I got closer and just wanted to get past this guy. I was chanting in my head “don’t turn around, don’t turn around, don’t turn around.” I was just inches past him when he said “Hey lady.” I planned on ignoring him and I planned to keep on going, but there was something about the tone. I stopped and looked back. He looked at me, soft sad brown eyes. “Yes?” I hesitantly asked. “Help me. I’m going to jump”/ JeanieS , Nuts & Nonsense. More here .
