Happy 8th birthday to Mac! We are celebrating at the cabin, today was beautiful! My heart just soars when I see him here, he is so full of joy and life. The boys spent today zooming around the yard and went for a few quick swims (the ice just went off this week, and it is COLD.) Jon and I always joke that the cabin was Mac's birthday present two years ago--when we came to see it, he was with. All we could hear were his happy feet running on the dock before splashing into the water, over and over. Mac has taught me so much about happiness, I could not be more grateful for today with him here.
Photography aside: I've been thinking of a place to do a mini-star trail shot as a test for a future project...who knew the perfect location was outside the cabin door? I wish this photograph could convey the sounds at 1:15am. There were three pair of loons setting up territory--and two Barred owls, and many frogs, doing the same. Last night was one of those magical moments where the wind is still enough to reveal how very alive the darkness can be.
Happy spring!

Great looking star trails!
ReplyDeleteOh, my sweet, sweet Maccie. I remember when you were little, and I got to carry you all over the FCRSA National Specialty at Rochester, MN (and it was SO hot). I took you over to the water hose and sprayed you off about every 45 minutes, mostly because it made ME feel better.
ReplyDeleteYou will always be one of the super stars in our lives, just as stunning as those in the sky!
