The photo below was taken earlier this week by my friend Renata Grzan. Her website www.fortheloveofbeauty.com is worth visiting.
Her photo evokes memories of my summers as a young boy, when days seemed long, and I needed nothing but a stick to pass the afternoon.
I had invited Renata to take some photos of Chippy and me. Just before this one was taken Chippy had become hot, tired, and ready to “go home.” When I handed him a stick, he forgot his need to go home — Renata caught him just as he headed off to explore the edges of the lake.
Orthodox. Faithful. Free.
