| June 7, 2012 Ashbury "Splash" Park, N.J. Photo by Alan Chin, New York |
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw this little boy running so freely through the sprinkler I had to capture it on camera. The plastic bucket, perched on his head like a helmet, reminded me of the one I’d wear in my childhood while playing war on the beaches of Coney Island and Brighton Beach.

ReplyDeleteHey hey Jodi! Welcome to the partay!
DeleteI love the scale of the hose and other bits which make one feel miniaturized. :-)
Cheers!
What fun! I think we all have those little moments we recall as children.. That freedom, without a care in the world. Thanks for sharing!

Though you look 30ish, I know we are closer to an age that we could have been grandmas already.... when I see kidlets like this one, I can hardly wait!
DeleteBut wait I will, 20 and 16 need to grow up first. :-)

Karena The Great! I have admired your comments all over blogland and your painting too.
DeleteYou are so right about the bucket helmet... that creativity brings a smile to my face, and joy to my heart. :-)
Props for letting me know how you "linked" onto me! Along with giving photo credits I think that "link" mention should also be mandatory (ok, encouraged).
Cheers!
