Happy Thanksgiving, Bets. It's rare that I can pinpoint the exact spot where someone took a photograph, but I recognized this one immediately (down to the bench you were probably sitting on when you shot this). This is a gorgeous locale and I come here every once in a while to take in the view and decompress. Did you take any of Jack climbing around on the ginormous tree off to the left? Looks like he was doing what all boys (even us old ones) love to do when we get near water and there are skippable rocks nearby (yeah, I admit it. I still skip rocks, even at my age). Great childhood shot. Eat lots of bird and cranberry sauce today.

@Russ Devan: correct, correct, RD! the ginormous downed tree made for good shooting as well - but I liked this one best. Happy Thanksgiving to your and yours! xoxoxo BB

Lovely shot Betsy, He almost looks as if he is going to dive in! How neat to feel that way- young and free and full of energy and joy of life.
