Over the past few months, I’ve been working on a photo organization project partly as a respite from the ever present political scene. It’s been slow going since I end up stopping to reminisce over every other photo. Now with spring on the rise and my yard calling for attention, I sense this project will be stopped for now and resumed next winter. The political scene will continue, however.
This is one photo I came across that I absolutely love. It was taken probably thirty years ago when my sons were children and the world was a different place. Kevin, the one on the right, wouldn’t be caught dead in faux fur these days, and Keith on the left has moved on from dogs to cats. Snoopy remains the constant.
At the time, Kevin was seven; Keith was three; and Snoopy was an undetermined age when this shot was taken in front of our house in Arlington Heights, Illinois. I love the way Kevin is holding on to Keith just as Keith is holding on to Snoopy. I think I’ll set this photo aside and frame it for my desk.
