sailing with pappy



A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you're inspired to do the same, leave a link to your 'moment' in the comments for all to find and see. {amanda blake soule}

Wishing you a lovely weekend!

  1. My son (now 10) loves to sail - this year he & his partner we're on their own for the first time (he's always had an adult with him before this summer) - it was so amazing - they grow up so fast - treasure each moment -

    Such a beautiful photo - how fun for your little guy - he will treasure this as he grows older :-) Happy weekending and thanks for sharing your moment.

    Thanks for sharing that about your son + his joy in sailing! Reading that gives me chills because it reminds me of my own sailing as a child + of feeling that same joy +freedom.

    Next year there are mini sunfish camps for 7 year olds...the real deal like your son does is at 8. I could not be more excited for the Monks! These are very lucky littles!

  3. I love how reverent he looks standing there on the dock. :) I grew up in the sailing world (on the coast of SC) and miss it dearly. Happy weekend!

  8. It seems the boy is wishing to be on one of the boats instead on the pier. Here is my marine moment:
