The Unlikely Place

This is always a hard time of year for me and, try as I might not to, I get caught up in memories. Just when I thought I might fall, joy and laughter came from a most unlikely source.

It is no secret that there is something about Shooter that appeals to me. Not until the other night did I realize what it was and vocalized it to Beth. In fact it was one of her shots of my boy here that made me see it. Shooter bears a very strong resemblance to someone I dated briefly when I was very young and impetuous. It was an amazing relationship such as it was and it brought back some good memories for me. Shooter is nothing like what we anticipated. At all.

Thank you, Shooter, for the smiles and the walk down memory lane.

Anyway I won't bore you with the uninteresting details but after struggling for days and days with CC and an inability to landscape properly I threw my hands in the air, said enough is enough and moved Shooter in. What resulted was a fun photo shoot and a Welcome Wagon.

Photo shoot is under the cut.
Welcome Wagon is here.
Also, Bio for Duff Tyson is here.

  4. I think even Rafe likes him in spite of Shooter's admiration for Gayl's...eyes. He is a very likeable guy! Adorable in fact.

    Glad you enjoyed it Qui! We have fun with it even if no one sees them.

    ~Drew, thank you, I think he fills those swim trunks out quite nicely! Very much a fun-loving guy.

    Yes I used a pose box although it wasn't intended for surfing. Will find a link and post it. Not easy to get it setup in the ocean but I tried my best.

Thanks for leaving me your thoughts ~ they always mean a lot.

In Perfect Harmony

In June of 2007 I posted my first chapter of Dark December. Since that time, the story has evolved and changed in part through a collaboration that developed and lasted over 4 years. During this time a friendship was forged. Thank you Beth, for unwavering friendship, support, and generosity over these last 4+ years. It has been a journey I will never forget.

In dreams, the sun sets in our eyes
In dreams, we'll never be apart
In dreams, I'll promise you'll never be alone
How much I wish your voice could send me home
