This is my entry to the Place Where I Live contest. I could use any photo of mine as I take most of my pictures nearby, but this one has special meaning for me. This is a place where I've lived and loved, rather than just a photo of my 'home'. My 95 year old father-in-law, Roger, passed away last summer and this was taken at his home. He went off this bag swing the day I got married and his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren grew up riding on this swing over the years. (I even went off it a few times though it was a pretty scary jump from the tree!) This was our last chance to enjoy it before Roger's house was sold. It was the Last Ride and though it was a sad time I loved the joy on the faces of the kids. I'm sure that made Roger smile.
