The Cowboys spotted at Ballard 80 days ago
If it’s the guys I’m thinking of (and, really, who else could I be thinking of…), they used to come into the REStore all the time. They lived in a small motor home on 14th near there, I’d occasionally see them entering or leaving. As far as I remember, they never bought anything (I suspect they were just hanging out), and never really said much. In the last year or so I worked there (2007-ish), I didn’t see them so much. There used to be a lot of people living in their cars on the median of 14th ave, but there was a move afoot to clean that area up, so there’s fewer and fewer these days.
I really never saw them more than like 2 feet from each other. Though, I suppose, if I /did/ see either one of them alone, I wouldn’t have recognized them anyway. One cowboy is nothing. But /two/ cowboys…
