the day after my birthday...





as part of my birthday present
we packed the kids up the next day
and went driving
looking for places to use my new camera.

we found dirt roads and lost wooden bridges,
barns ready to retire and purple trucks
parked in a field.

i adored this day.

the kids were reluctant at first,
especially twelve...
but she took her hand-me-down camera
and in the end, they both had a lot of fun
and said
we should do this more often.

i agree.

Oh, I love days like this. Our vacation this year was spent in search of photograph opportunities. Because I have a new birthday camera too!! It's quite a tasty addiction.
