Guide Dog Standoff

 

August 11 weekend

 West Hartford CT business center is a small version of a big downtown where Fidelco trainers walk their guide dogs. I am behind a trainer and his dog as they arrive at an intersection. A car arrives at the stop sign. It is a standoff. I watch. Nobody moves. Finally the trainer, acting blind, gives in and waves the driver on. His mouth is moving as he drives by. I can only guess what words he uses to express his feelings. I shouldn't judge the driver who obviously is making a misjudgment of his own.

 "Judge not that you be judged." (Matthew 7:1)
