"WANTED, Girl to wear stretch pants in pits during coming motorcycle road-racing season. Must be able to turn stop watches off and on, and must also be able to turn rider mostly on."

from the classified ads in Helix, a #Seattle underground newspaper, February 1968. The others are rather spicy too....

Portion of a typewritten page with "unclassified" ads in boxes. They include a magazine that explores "the world of transvestism," a married couple seeking partners for swinging, and a plea for Judi to call her mother

One of B.C.'s nicknames is the Left Coast, for good reason. Though the influx of foreign and tech money over the last decade or so has diminished progressivism a bit there.

This is an abstract black and white photo in landscape format of multiple bird houses mounted on the white wooden frame supporting an awning over a bungalow's porch. Santa Catalina, California (2015).

In the foreground and perhaps two metres from the camera, is a white wooden frame built in front of a bungalow supporting a fabric awning over the porch. The frame consist of four pairs of long parallel planks stretching away from the camera towards the house, that support a further pair located at the front and at right angles to the others. The fabric is stretched across the top, however, its become detached closer to the house on the right side where its hanging down loose. Located along the front pair of planks that are at right angles to the camera are ten small bird houses, all different and facing away from the house (facing the camera). There are at least two further bird house hanging from a support on the left side closer to the house. Above is a clear and cloudless sky rendered dark grey.

The location: Avalon, Santa Catalina, California.
