A summer day in St. Margaret's Bay was filled with adventure just waiting to be experienced. But if it was turn to sell flowers, having a buddy -- or maybe even your brother -- and your dog along, of course, made it seem not that bad a chore. As soon as the last sale was finished, off we'd run to play.

It was fun to incorporate many of my favorite things into a balanced and, hopefully, refreshing image. Flowers, sailing, nature, a shore village, water, friendship, and even a dog's devotion... it's all in there.
