The walkers

Mom and Dad got a rep as the most romantic couple in our area. Out twisty mountain road has a straightaway that starts right by their driveway, and they would walk the quarter mile for their exercise, holding hands. Locals would stop and talk when they were out.

A photographer chanced on them one day, and took some pictures; we now have copies, and a warm memory of their love.
