Over the years we have assembled quite a few photograph albums.  More latterly, over the past six years, our photographs, so dear to memory, have been taken with digital cameras.  Since we lost Button, we have been perusing our old photo albums.  In the process, discovering countless photos of her in various settings.

Delighting us, and not the least of those have been photographs of her with us on numerous mountain climbing expeditions in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, canoe-camping with us in Algonquin Park, and hiking in various places we have loved, over the years, to go to, to regain our presence with nature.

Far from distressing us to see those photographs that were taken years ago, when she was young, vibrant and adventurous, we are excited and happy to see them.  They are an affirmation of how important she has been to our lives, and what an important part she played in our enjoyment with life.

They are valued assists to our memory of our beloved companion.
