I wanted to do something that was very personal to me, and one of the things I've been doing since 2002 is helping to get dogs and cats that are in kill shelters to places where they will find them homes. I help transport these animals in need. I will go down to Binghamton or Rochester, Watertown or Herkimer and bring them back to Syracuse, where another driver will meet me and take them to the next meeting place. To date, I've helped over 2,300 animals. In the big picture it doesn't seem like much but it is the different between life and death for those animals.

I wanted safe place in Syracuse that was recognizable as Syracuse in the background and Clinton Square was the first place I thought of. It's ironic because right after I took my reference photo they began to erect a new building and it doesn't look quite the same as my poster. That is alright. Nothing stays the same.
