I love today's theme and I love all of the images.
Don, please do not apologize, I totally enjoyed your photos from years ago. Because of their age, they are now new again.

I am sitting here anxiously awaiting the arrival of my new lens, which was suppose to arrive yesterday! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.
The gloomy morning to a blue sky and temps in the mid-70s, WOW. I am ready to take my lens for a test run at the nearby nature center. But here it is 1:00 and I do not hear any UPS trucks approaching. Yesterday, the UPS truck sailed by at 12:45.
Last week's photo club challenge was STREET PHOTOGRAPHY. Some of the people took it literally and submitted photos of streets! I was a little disappointed.

Street photographers do not necessarily have a social purpose in mind, but they prefer to isolate and capture moments which might otherwise go unnoticed.
Both of your people shots are fine examples of street photography, Don and Dave.
I will show you some of the FIVE that I submitted for the club meeting last week, starting with this one:
