I took this photograph of these kids playing on the beach as the sun set on a hot August day last summer. That was exactly 6 months ago. At that time the days were getting noticeably shorter, the waning days of summer. Let’s be optimists as the winter wanes and dream of 6 months from now when this scene will be repeated again.
