Sarah and a Washtub

Sarah's Index

So Sarah, if I buy it, you really think you’ll fit?



Sure. I’m not that tall and I was a gymnast



Well, OK if you say so



Off to the local farm store.

Pimple faced kid behind the counter.

Where do you keep the washtubs?



Metal ones inside, the bigger ones are out back



I head out back still not sure about this one.



I return to the front of the store, carrying my find. 5’2 woman, long dark hair, overalls, T-shirt and tennis shoes in front of the counter. Kid behind the counter, consulting paper work, and on the phone.



She says she ordered the feed trough 2 weeks ago. Someone called her and said it was in…..



This goes on and on. The woman and I wait patiently, trading bored stares.



I know this is a weird question, but if you laid on your side, do you think you would fit in the bottom of this?” The kid behind the counter quits talking into the phone and stares slack jawed. The woman ponders the washtub.



Sure, here let me try

The person on the other end of the phone starts talking to the kid. Grudgingly, he returns to the task of finding the trough.



Gee uh, thanks. Guess you do, a little cramped but not bad! You see, I’m a photographer, and if you’re ever interested, here’s my card….



I shot her a month later for a private commission.



And Sarah Fit in the tub.. Istill keep it laying around my studio. .It is an awesome piece of gear for parties. .load it with ice, and toss the drinks in
