nurturing hope, creativity, family
“Family faces are like magic mirrors. Looking at people who belong to us, we see past, present and future.”
I just love these faces.

I think if I had to choose just one thing I love most about taking children to the beach, it would be the experience of introducing a crawling baby to the wonders of endless sand and water.
From the minute we set her down, she was on a mission. After a minute or two of playing in the sand, she headed directly for the water.
We laughed and we marveled and took pictures. Then we ran and grabbed her.
Thankfully she was satisfied with the shallow water we let her play in.
Oh my, I love being here!

Somehow, each time we visit my parents, we end up having some unusual experience with wildlife. This last trip was no different. Elk wandered into our camp, and they were breathtakingly beautiful.
They were completely uninterested in us, and paused to glance at us only occasionally. They were only concerned in eating. I was so amazed by them that I just kept taking pictures. It was marvelous to be within a few yards of such majestic animals.
I love the way this one cocked his head to look at us.
This shot illustrates how close we were to them.
I marvel that I grew up in a place where sights like this are common. I remember the morning I woke up early in the morning to complete a drawing assignment. I opened the back curtains and saw a sight just like this in our backyard. Guess what I drew that morning?
What a privilege to witness such beauty.
