My grand daughter Megan taking a breather while we were hiking in the Naval Live Oaks section of the Gulf Islands National Seashore on a chilly February day about 3 years ago. Great idea for a theme Hank!

Hi Bill, I was thinking about this or a similar photo that you posted on WC just a few minutes ago when I dropped you a note. I can remember that both you and Wayne Jones posted such charming images of your grandkids.

This image too tells a wonderful story. I love the composition.

Cheers,

Carol

Wow! The hat, the shoes, the pack. And that one eye peaking out! What a background for the sly smile. This youngster bears close watching in future years, Bill. She has "spunk" written all over.

I'm hoping this is printed large on family walls.

Too cute, Bill! I agree with Hank- she looks like a real smart, fun child.

I remember that smile (and hat). An unforgettably cute shot, and also one that comments on two of the things to remember when hiking with kids: Take lots of breaks; and bring lots of snacks and drinks.
