My son, in 2006. I think he is celebrating a hit… in a mud fight.
mud fight
For the Daily Prompt: courage.
In 2006, I am photographing the cousins all swimming and a mud fight starts…. oh. Should I stop it? “No rocks!” I say. My sister chimes in, “Don’t throw mud at us!” My daughter prudently gets out.

For the Daily Prompt: rube.
Butter wouldn’t melt in their mouths… what mischief is this group planning?
gold
For the Daily Prompt: rube.
I am thinking of Rube Goldberg, here: https://www.rubegoldberg.com/education/. I think of his fabulously complicated drawings of imaginative machines.
And the gold is these cousins, of very different ages, interacting and having a wonderful time. Taken in 2006 at Lake Matinenda.
cabin door 2
For Norm2.0’s Thursday doors.
Another cabin door at Lake Matinenda. My aunt and uncle built this cabin, with help from family, including my parents. This is taken in 2006. We are gearing up to play pirates. My niece and I are wearing “pirate” makeup and my daughter has gone with “princess”. I put tiny braids in my hair and braided in fern bits, leaves, match sticks and other small things, like Captain Jack Sparrow. Then the pirates went to capture all the people!
