Ned
Ned will tell you how he sees it. It will not be like anyone else sees it, but it will be interesting. He used to ride a unicycle to school. He is a painter.
He has always looked slight but he is one of the strongest people I know. Once, we were climbing an old rope ladder to the roof of a derelict building. The rope ladder started from the top of a second story fire escape and went up about 15 feet to a parapet roof. It snapped when he was almost at the top. On his way back down, he reached out and grabbed the railing of the fire escape with his hands like some kind of acrobat and it jerked so hard I thought he was going to pull it and me off of the side of the building. We climbed down the fire escape and went back inside the building to have a beer or ten. I was living there at the time. I am not sure how the people who were already on the roof got down.
He moved out of state and later he had some kind of break. He was in a mental hospital for a month or so before a mutual friend’s mom discovered him there by chance. He was diagnosed with Grave’s disease and they removed his thyroid and he came back.
He is living with his wife beside a lake in Maine now. He makes snowmen that put Calvin to shame. He has a beautiful daughter. He spends his days taking care of her and painting.
