General Assignment.

This morning, I photographed -- discreetly, I hope, and on invitation -- members of the Muslim community in Barron breaking their fast, ending Ramadan, and beginning the three-day Eid al-Fitr holiday with prayers in the soccer field next to the apartment so many live in, here in town.

We have an Islamic Cultural Center here, and a good-sized population, many of whom work at The Turkey Store, but it is still a separate community in many ways. Still, the children are in the public schools, and in a few generations, no doubt there will be more of a cultural mix.

Was glad when the elder stopped in yesterday, and invited us to come and cover the morning services. Turned out to be a beautiful morning, and I remembered what I like most about this job: getting out and about, meeting new faces, and learning new things...

Happy Tuesday to you.
