Kevin, on Market Street

Waiting at the lights to cross Market Street at the edge of the Tenderloin, I was approached by Kevin, in his motorized wheelchair.

"Hey, could you help me out? I don't want any money - I'm just hungry and want food", Kevin said, straight to the point.

"Sure, why not? What are you after - burger works for you? There's a Carls Jr just down the street, how about that?"

"OK then."

We started down the street towards the nearby burger joint.

"How long have you been in San Francisco?", I ask, part of my standard interview gambit.

"15 years. You're not from here though - where are you from?", he says, noticing my accent.

"Well, last place I was at was Sydney, for 15 years."

"No kidding! I was there a a while back - there was this bar I went to just outside of Sydney, called 'Sunnys', I think - is it still there?"

"Sydney's a big town with a lot of bars - it's probably still there, but I'm not sure. What took you all the way out there?"

"I used to be in the merchant marines," he explains as we head into the burger joint, "but then I got sick. Still, San Francisco is a great city to be in - so many freedoms."

"Yeah, it's a fun place to be."

We chat for a bit more as I get an order for food sorted out and Kevin gracefully allows me to snap a quick portrait before I head on my way.
