last week in michigan, we had a few good days of positively beautiful weather.

i took advantage and loaded up some of my inventory, headed to my cousin's farm... which once belonged to our grandparents...

and took some really excellent pictures. 

this is my cousin jeff.

he and i... both only children... grew up as brother and sister.

that day, i witnessed integrity.

a lost art, it seems.

but it was alive and well that day.

very alive, indeed.

smile, wink, nod.
