The Rose Garden In Eugene.
We dated here. We read together and studied together here.
We took our lunch breaks together here.
It was time for a visit.
My daughter being a photographer...
This tree is enormous. The surrounding rosebushes are taller than me, to put it in perspective.
I want to climb it.
I came with a mission to take a picture of “our bench”.
It overlooks the Willamette River and he proposed to me there.
I’ve been so eager to take a photo of it for this project.
I wasn’t counting on the gentleman sitting there, reading a book with unmistakable contentedness on his face and in his demeanor.
So I did something I wouldn’t normally do. I stole a shot of him.
After all, he was on OUR bench and I’m sure he wouldn’t have appreciated my asking him to move. It’s just a bit weird to me that anyone else has ever enjoyed that particular spot. It honestly had never occurred to me.
