This was going to be a must read for my Trolley commute. Hurt still lingered from stepping quietly by several homeless people laying against building walls and in tents around B Street and 9th Avenue, near Bankers Hill.                                    Delores Fisher Blogger July 2022 Hello readers in France, Canada, and the Netherlands.
