Big Bear Lake

A summer 2008 day on the lake with my boys, recorded in the sun-faded colors of an old family album.

A moment from the journey

This Summer 2008 album is a small, personal record of being out on Big Bear Lake together. The boys took turns at the wheel, we watched the mountains from the boat, and I made sure to get into a picture too. It is a reminder that a memorable trip does not have to be far from home.
