Today Matthew and I celebrate our twenty-eighth year together...this is the anniversary of our first date, which we celebrate more enthusiastically than our wedding anniversary. The photo accompanying this note (one of my favorite shots of all time) is a picture of Francina with her husband Wib taken shortly before his unexpected passing. I think we are about the same age as they were at the time of this photograph. What vitality and joy and sense of adventure we see shared between the two of them. Made all the more poignant knowing how fleeting it was for them. So, looking at this picture makes me aware and incredibly grateful for the here and now, our good health and the laughter we continually share as we trip through life together. I picked a good one.
