for christopher

This is my favorite picture of Christopher.

It was taken early in the morning on our vacation last summer and a little coffee shop in a town of no more than a few hundred people

. 

We had spent the last 4 days hiking and camping along the Columbia River Gorge that borders Oregon and Washington. We had no clue where we were going, who we would see and what we would do; yet we were up and ready for our next adventure.

I love Chris for many reasons.

But one of the things that is so great about him is that no matter where I am it always feels like home when I am with him.

Happy 26th birthday Christopher!
