My buddy, Rob of The V-Pub invited me to a 5 day challenge to join the Five Photos, Five Stories Challenge: “Post a photo each day for five consecutive days and attach a story to the photo. It can be fiction or non-fiction, a poem or a short paragraph and each day nominate another blogger for the challenge”.
My father passed away in 2007. After he was cremated, my uncles, siblings and I all scattered his ashes in the bay where it was done for his parents when they died. As kids they would all hang out and go fishing in this area. We tossed white roses in the water and this particular lonely one stood out.
I certainly don’t mean to be a Debbie Downer with this story but this photo feels like it appropriately captured the feeling of the moment. My father and I were very close and the loss was a big one for our family. I know he’s resting in peace and protecting us from above. 🙂
Here’s where I now nominate someone to do it. I nominate the super hilarious and wise Gratuitous Rex! No offense taken if you don’t do it, buddy, but would love to hear what you got!
