NOVEMBER 2018 - JUST THIS MOMENT

“Just This Moment” is intended to be a collection of those small moments in which you are truly present in your life - at just that moment. The images may not be frame-worthy, but are moments that fill you with joy, allow you to experience a moment of gratitude, make you smile, touch your heart, and/or make your soul sing. I encourage you to share your “moment” here with me, but I will get us started with this…

A DAY WITH DAD

I love to go wandering back roads looking, getting lost, … finding new things to photograph. I have done this since my college days, but I have taken it to a new level as I have matured. I call it ‘splorin’. It’s just my term for exploring. My sweet husband knows exactly what it means when I announce that I’m ready to go ‘splorin’.

I also know that it probably is safer to add a ‘splorin’ partner to the mix. So, one foggy morning this month, I picked-up my Dad for a day of driving around on a few back roads. At one point, he asked if I had any idea where we were. I assured him I had absolutely no idea… that is part of the fun for me. Then, we stopped for a BBQ (that is Texas lingo for barbecue) lunch before we headed back home.

I did not take a lot of photos that day, and that is okay with me. I got to spend a day with my Dad. I got to hear a few stories I never knew about him, and I hope we both made some new memories in the process.
