A Little Something Different - Picture A Day (or maybe not everyday)

Short, Sweet, and a Little Bit of Pepper

Posting in a slightly different way today. I usually sit down to write something "quick" and end up spewing out a five-minute read. Every time I tell myself, "Brad, keep it simple," I look up and realize I’ve typed a novel.

So, today I’m taking a cue from a fellow Hiver. I noticed a community that's new to me called 'Picture A Day'. While I’m not sure I’ll manage a photo every single day, it’s a great reason to engage more consistently.

I’ve always loved photography. I even held onto my old darkroom equipment until this past summer, when I finally sold it to someone who will hopefully give it the home (and use) it deserves.

A Memory from the Garden

Without further delay, I wanted to share this photo of Pepper (rest in peace). Here he is, sitting in the garden and "keeping an eye" on the strawberries.

To be honest, that isn't entirely true. I’d like to think he was guarding the patch, but he was actually just watching me pick the season's first harvest, hoping I’d drop a bite for him.

Looking at this really touches me. Pepper was an incredible dog and truly the light of our lives for so many years. He brought us more joy than I can put into words. We still miss him every day—so much so that we accidentally call poor Huxley "Pepper" from time to time.

Huxley doesn’t seem to mind, though. Truth be told, he has a lot of the same traits Pepper had. I think they would have been the best of friends.

Thank you for swinging by my blog and checking out the post. Have a great day!
