MORDECAI IS LEAVING


 A few years back I went with a friend to Krakow.  Visited places in this beautiful city including the Jewish Quarter. I came across this little hand-carved, wooden rabbi that I bought to accompany my then pocket Serbian traveler,  Radovan, whom you can see RIGHT HERE.

Up until recently they have shared shelf space and Radovan has come along on a couple of other trips.  

But now, because I am downsizing and trying to gift some of my 'stuff' to friends who might give it a good home, a Jewish friend of mine is going to take Mordecai to the BELGRADE SYNAGOGUE where he will be appreciated.




FILM NOIR

My urban neighborhood is often used for filming. Above is just a passer-by, but the whole scene reminded me of something from a  FILM NOIR.
